This will position the ball snugly in the couple and the latch should just fall in place.Look at the trailer side of the coupler underneath. Notice that the "tongue" as I call it will go up inside the couple and prevent the ball from fully seating and the latch from working. Hope this helps.

That sounds like a very reasonable possibility. I'll try your suggestion next time we hook up. Thank you! I'll report how it went!!
