Check the secondary position and the primary position for latch assembly (1). The primary position for latch assembly (1) occurs when the door is fully closed and the door is fully latched. The secondary position for latch assembly (1) occurs when the door is latched but the jaws are not in the primary latch position.
If the primary position for latch assembly (1) is not achieved, loosen striker (2).
