During climb; around FL180; the nose accessory door warning light illuminated. We leveled off at FL190; completed the check list and diverted to a nearby airport where the approach and landing were uneventful. The forward latch was unseated at the bottom; however the remaining latch assembly was secured. During the final walk around; before engine start; latches were verified to be secured by both crew members.
