The locking rods can bend and won't move the lock as it should. In your case I would say that is what it is. Need a replacement rod as they are hard to bend back to the exact shape needed to work..

Try lubricating the lock mechanism with a penetrating lubricant....

yeah i might pull the locking and latch out of the door and have closer look, are they hard to get out?

Nah they're easy, just a few screws to remove from the end of the door and the clips holing the rods but you can give them a good squirt in the door, I have had to do one of my rears a couple of times over the last 10yrs...
