There is a black sensor that detects when the fuser door is closed, and an actuator that the sensor either sees or doesn't see. If this sensor is dirty, it might not be seeing the actuator. It could also be broken or knocked out of place.
Locate the actuator on the side door (a small metal or plastic tab that sticks out from the door) and find the corresponding sensor. Make sure the sensor is in place and not broken or moved, and make sure it's connector is well-seated. If you have a can of compressed air, blow it into the sensor to clear away any dust or dirt.
