My 1997 F-250 does the same thing... It's the sensor in the door or in the drivers kick panel is either shorting out or not connecting properly...

The WD40 lubricated the door mechanism but evaporates over time so the issue returns. Spray the lock mechanism with engine fogging oil for much longer results.
