Check normal map strength/intensity in your hypershade. Maya loves to just wickedly bump out normal and bump maps by default.

Maya Software renderer is pretty bad at rendering normal maps. Worry not, your normal map is probably fine, try rendering it in MentalRay and if the results there are good, your normal map is good.
