    My guess is that the something is miss wired in that switch box. That lighting circuit is being "interrupted" by that switch. And the other question is what is that switch supposed to work ? A switched outlet perhaps ?
    You would be shocked (pun intended) as to what a DIY home owner will tap into for power when doing their own remodel. "Hey this is a hot wire, we can tap into it to feed _______ ."
