hi guys! well my door is not closing correctly and i took a photo to show you guys what i think may be the problem but im not 100% sure.

in the photo is the final locking position in the door when i close the door soft it only goes into the first position where the hook just grabs the door and it is not locked properly, so i can get it to close right i have to slam it which i do not like, now the idea i have as you see in the picture is a rubber bump stop that prevents the door from closing right and the switch right above it from making contact leaving the lights in the cluster running at all times, i was wondering if anyone knows if this may be the problem of the door closing incorrectly?

 

thats not the problem its your striker ... loosen the screws on the striker and adjust it slightly out it should fix your problem

 

Yeah. Loosen the 2 screws on the door striker and move it "outward" a tiny bit till the door closes normal without having to slam it. If the dome light stays on, adjust the dome light switch just below the striker.



BTW: To loosen the striker, using the following tools on the screws is your best bet:
- Large phillips-head screwdriver bit
- 1/4" socket (insert the screwdriver bit)
- ratchet

This will give you lots of leverage over those tight *** screws. Use the best fitting bit to ensure you don't strip the screw heads.

 

thanks guys! ill try with both doors do the same i didn't think you could adjust but hope it works
