The dash "warning" for the door open will only work when the key is "on" - engine does not need to be running.

Since the 94 coupe did not come with a factory alarm - dealer install or aftermarket - this might be a bit of fun to figure out.

When the door is open, the door jam switch sends a "ground signal". Since the light in the door comes on but not on the dash (KO) then there is a break in the ground somewhere.
