Kitchen Drawer Won’t Close

Our kitchen drawer stopped latching - with no obvious cause.
It does not seem to fully close.
We followed the instructions on the forum to successfully remove the drawer but did not find a cause.
Suggestions?
Has anyone experienced this and were you able to fix it?
(2017 Vegas)

Your latch has either closed or broken. Pull the drawer again and look at both halves of the latch.

I took a closer look at the latch.
At first glance, it looked fine - but you are right - it is the latch!
Thank you!
I will see if we can release it.
Will also order some as I am sure it will happen again.

These were direct replacements for our 2019 Vegas 25.5. Had one break and now have some extras on hand.

I have a 2015 Vegas 24.1. Over the 6 1/2 years we've used it I've replaced about 6 of those latches that have broken. They are not a reliable latch. Make sure you always have extras on hand.
