Not really a problem just a pain.
The original mechanism works pretty good but most of the parts are worn out if it doesn't stay open for you. This design allowed the door to stop and stay put at about 80% open and then the next cog opened the door beyond 90 degrees and held it there. Not sure about parts or repair but might be worth a look. Mine still works.....
