Try this quick and easy fix. The switch and screw in the door can become rusty on the backside and can cause problems like this. With the driver's door open, lift up the rubber cover from the bottom of the switch. This will expose a bolt (I believe it is 10MM). Remove the bolt and pull the switch out just a bit without disconnecting it. Now clean all the rust off the back side of the switch and also the spring and the shaft the spring rides on. It has a tendancy to get very rusty on the back side of that switch. Use a wire brush if one is available. Make everything as clean and shiny as possible. Also clean the bolt itself. Clean the threads and the underside of the bolt head. The bolt grounds the switch to the door. Now cover everything with dielectric grease to prevent the rust from returning. Reinstall the switch and see if the problem is solved. This should take about 5-10 minutes.
