Main gear door issue

On my '65. The issue is every now and again I land and find the pilots side main door wide open like a very effective air brake. If I turn the master back on and hand pump, no problem it closes right up. It doesn't happen every time. Anybody got any ideas?

My understanding of the sequence is that after the light is triggered (gear up or gear down) then the solenoid is powered, moves something on the power pack to actuate the door hydraulics. Doors close, pressure builds until enough is achieved to move handle. My handle is returning and I am getting light...all normal. But then I land to find the one big door open?

Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Bill
