I disconnected both leads. I held the leads coming from the door hinge separately while in contact with the multimeter and depressing the switch. I did not think to screw them back to the door/plastic harness; I didn't think it would make a difference.
I'll admit that electrics are not my strong suit.
I had the thought just before I checked this thread again that the plug between the switch and the harness could be the issue. It was the only other thing I could have potentially, maybe, damaged when pulling the switch from the console. The switch I pulled was most definitely broken. It wouldn't 'click' into it's down position, the exterior plastic of the hinge was broken.
