Inter carriage electrical connection doesn’t hold

[Airbuspilot]

We have a three car ABe 8/12 Allegra, there are multi pin electrical connectors between carriages. When connected the plugs are held tight and difficult to disconnect. This has been true for all four plugs on these carriages until today, for some reason one plug is now very loose and will not stay connected. I cannot see any damage and there doesn’t seem to be anything missing like a small spring for example. The plug fits perfectly but is very loose fitting, has anyone seen a problem of this sort and is there a fix?

Hm if no other practical solutions come up, a bit of plasticard with a slope at one end should keep things in place.not too thick, you just want enough friction to hold in place without putting too much strain in to pull out lest you dislodge any wires.
