The door switch has two wires going to that are grounded when the door
is open. One is for the interior lights and the other is for the chime.
You have a cross connection there.

Subject: Chime Quirk

My chime has developed a wierd quirk.  When the key is in the ignition
and
the door is open, of course the chime happily does it's thing...  But
when you
close the door, the chime continues - but is just barely audible.
Starting the
engine has no effect, and it continues.
