It is plugged in but the clip is broken
If it plugged in does it need a clean can it be cleaned or swap out?

Nearly there got the doors lined up closing ......but
If you shut hard the doors don't latch but softer shut they do

14 hours ago, gerg said:There is no easy method, just lots of trial and error. You need to line up the opening end with the striker and get it closing nicely, make sure your gaps are ok. Look at your window frame and make sure it's making good contact with the seal. If the seal is old, a bit of silicone spray helps the door shut more easily without force.
If you can't get it to latch nicely but your body lines are good, you will need to play around with the striker adjustment.
Once you have it shutting nicely and body lines matching, you might have to move the guard in or out to line it up again, and this then messes up your panel gap to the bonnet.
These cars weren't very accurate with panel gaps so you really need to just live with the compromise between the door lining up with the body and the bonnet shut line being too wide. The very last thing you want is for the door to not shut properly and have water come in the cabin.

And then, the scuttle and bonnet ended up with about 10mm of gap to the guards. It looked wrong but it was the best I could do without chopping something. I just got used to it.
