Thank you.
determine why the latch doesn't want to close - broken, crud in the receiver, or if it is under too much tension to close. to confirm the first, unscrew the latch from the humps and see if you can get it to close ok. if it closes ok then the issue is too much tension - you can shim the latch, or get at the receiver and adjust it upwards (two screws with a lot of stuff in the way to make it not easy).
