door ajar

I changed the oil in a friend's 2000 ext.cab tonite.When he got in to leave the door ajar warning came on and the domelight will not go out.We tried everything to get it to go out with no luck.I took off the neg. cable from the battery and when I went to hook it up it sizzled at the clamp like there was a short somewhere.He also said that sometimes the door ajar light will come on on a gravel road.Any suggestions?I feel bad cause it happened as soon as I got thru with the oil.Any ideas would be appreciated.

The switch is in the door latch, spray it with electrical contact cleaner or WD40. This is a common problem.
