2021 Road Glide Limited Fuel door sticking

2021 Road Glide Limited fuel door sticks when you push the button to open. I have to use my fingernail while holding button down to open. This happened before and the dealer fixed it in about 10 minutes. Has anyone had this problem? Does anyone know how to fix?

Mine does it all the time; I adjust the silver tensioner under the lid/ works for a while then it won’t open. I just use my finger nail to pull it up.

Take a 90* flat head and bend the prongs underneath that push the door up. Like said above you may have to do it every few months. My buddies only had to adjust his once and his has been good for a few years.

Mine sticks on my 2020. I apply some be grease to the spring and it fixes it for a few months at a time.

Make sure the springy tongue thing is straight into the catch. Give a slight twist of the nut if not. Usually helps mine for a bit but ya these doors can be temperamental.
