Door unlocks but wont lock on fob and show door open all the time

Well this morning just before going out I thought I'd give it a try and it's....fixed itself. If I manipulate the claw arm I can now hear the microswitch clicking on and off.

I hadn't added any more contact cleaner since Tuesday morning, so perhaps it just needed some time to fully dry out after several soakings in order for the switch to loosen/internals to dry etc. Unsure of exactly what happened but very happy as it now locks! Updating here for future googlers!

Excellent, glad to hear it.

It is a big relief when you can now lock your van after spraying the contact cleaner in for a while
