Your description indicates the door hinges require adjustment.
Usually the striker would be removed and the door hinges adjusted for easy closing and equal gaps. It is likely in your efforts to make the door flush with the front wing, mudguard or fender, the hinges are too far in.
Most likely your replacement door is not identical to the original - not unusual for various reasons...
Once the door hinges have been adjusted to provide a satisfactory position and closing the striker would be refitted and adjusted so it goes into the catch or latch dead centre - neither lifts nor pulls down the door as it closes.
That is where the door needs to be and if it stands proud a little it is just bad luck - often the front fender can be repositioned and then the bonnet or hood readjusted.
A competent panel beater would be able to tweak things for you to make them acceptable.
It might have been better to fit a new latch to the original door.
You will be needing to find a helpful body shop and ask them to either adjust your hinges and latches, or, replace parts that are broken.
God bless your efforts.
Adjust the speed. Adjudsting screw in the end of it (on the door edn). Tun it in to slow down, out to speed up. Should only need 1 or 2 turns. If still not adjusting, replace the unit.
Yes, the doorjam switch is either shorted or broken. This switch is on the cabin door opening by the hinges. In rare cases the pin may be self adjusting. Sometimes you can press in the pin by hand to see if it shuts off the interior light. Do not slam the door with your finger in the hinge area.
There may be a problem with the door adjustment or the hinge may be broken and you do not know it. It can be a lose or broken wire inside the cabin shell.
Remove from any
power source, remove the cover of the cabinet. Slacken off the clamp
mechanism and ease the clamp over the guide to allow the door to
open. The door may be easily
adjusted by slackening off the screws that clamp the door
catch/actuators in place whilst holding the door closed and then
tightening the screws. The rear of the door may be adjusted by
slackening the lower door hinge screws and adjusting as required. I
hope that helps.
The usual cause of a hanging door is a worn door hinge or two. You might be able to loosen and lift the two hinges, at the front of the door, a bit.That might allow the door to close better but the best solution is to replace the worn hinges.
Likely nothing to adjust.
With the door open, see if the door can be lifted up and down while looking at the hinges. If there is play, the door hinge pins/bushings are worn out, and on some vehicles, the hinges are not serviceable, and replacement will be needed. G/L
The Cover hinge is misaligned, causing a no cool situation, the door switch
and magnet are out of alignment, the door alarm is also on
The Blue arrow shows the hinge improperly aligned, the
Yellow arrow shows the correct position of the hinge Solution:
Using pliers adjust
the height of the hinge by pushing it down, the cover hinge willalign properly as
well as the door switch and the magnet, energizing cooling fan and having refrigerator cooling properly.
