Old-style Kenmore washer door switch

Is there an adjustment I can make to the door switch plate? It’s the top loader, old style door lid switch with the little pin in the lid that makes contact with the switch plate when the lid’s closed, letting the washer know it’s ok to do it’s thing….
Recently, it’ll stop washing mid-cycle. I’m assuming the agitation does something that causes the switch and pin to slightly separate(like on a heavy wash cycle and the clothes are really sloshing around in there).
It’s definitely the switchplate/pin that’s the problem…I took off the rubber protector ring around the pin, and it works fine. It’s almost like this bumper-ring is too thick and causing the pin/plate to not make full contact. But it’s the original bumper. I haven’t swapped any parts or done anything.
I can wash clothes just fine now with the bumper ring removed, but I’m worried someone will close the lid too firmly and snap the pin it was on.
I’m wondering if the pin is replaceable or the switchplate can be adjusted up/down? I can’t see spending $50 plus time to install a new switchplate if this one isn’t broken…something just needs adjusting.
