I’m pretty handy so I may be able to fix it myself, I just want to get some of the abundant wisdom here first. I believe it is a schwintek type, it has rails on each side, top & bottom. I’ve tried you tube, but nothing I’ve seen on there has worked.
Take a look at this Utube video from someone that has the same problem.

There is only one motor and one shaft on each side of the slide so you must take it apart like he has done in the video to address/correct the problem. You probably also have a bad pinion gear or a loose assembly for your problem to occur and the Schwintek system cannot electrically repair this issue.
