Angry door latch micro switch surgery

O.K., so I replaced the micro switch in my drivers door to eliminate the "door open " message. This also allowed me to lock my car and set the alarm. About 3 days later, when I opened the drivers door, I got this message " passenger door open". Didn't think much about it, until the next morning as I put it in gear, I did NOT hear the automatic door locks and they stayed unlocked. Now, a day later, I can't set the alarm, the doors don't lock, even if I use the key ANDDDDDD the interior lights stay on, like all the F****** time! Any body got a clue????? I have had the driver door panel off so many times that I can do it in under 5 minutes easy. A LITTLE HELP !!!!!!

Replacing the micro switch is easy it is the final switch, latch and strike adjustment that makes it all work properly. Did you lubricate the latch mechanism when you had it out?
