This. A few people add shims to ensure it engages as over time the gap grows and it stops engaging. Usually it's an intermittent fault that gets worse. Think the gap needs be around 0.3-0.5mm IIRC? Some have used cable ties even. Worth searching on this forum and elsewhere as it's potentially a DIY job.
