Door lock and security alarm

[secondchance]

When I had the car painted recently, I had the shop switch door lock cylinder betrween the driver side and passenger side since I had been using only the driver side to unlock. I stopped using PKE fob because I hate bulging pocket.

Since the switch, when I unlock the door it triggers the alarm. I have to insert the key, turn counter clock wise (turns off the alarm) and then turn the key clock wise and re-unlock. I use the power lock button to arm and lock doors.

I pulled the door panel yesterday to figure out what is going on but can't.

Has anyone had a similar situation? Bad switch connected to the door lock cylinder? I could not find an appropriate section in the factory manual.

Any help would be appreciated.
