Vlan VTP Client doesn't updated

Let's back to classic mode :d learning and exploring about Cisco again. In a few months ago I'm on next mode (*red. exploring about new stuff/things).

I ever happen vlan in VTP client doesn't updated, I have 3 switch for example. SW1, SW2, SW3, SW1 mode server, SW2 and SW3 mode client. SW1 and SW2 have trunk, SW1 and SW3 have trunk too. VTP configuration set domain TEST, no password. Vlan in SW2 has beed updated same with SW1 but SW3 doesn't updated, there are some procedure I do :

- re-check trunk configuration, re-config if need
- re-check vtp configuration, re-config if need
- make sure MD5 digest same on SW1 and SW3, if different try to set password first in SW3 'vtp password TEST' and then disable 'no vtp password'. if still different, try to set / disable password in SW1, SW3 and don't forget set / disable password too in all vtp client switch SW2.
