Just if they're wore out I guess. Does it get stuck n you have to move it manually,then it will catch n move on its own?

take the switch apart on the door and clean the contacts. Be careful when opening it up there are small parts that will come out.

Clean the switch. I've cleaned mine a few times with no problems. Now it's time to buy a new one. The copper screening gets work down from dirt over the years.
