Thanks everyone for the comments and advice so far. I bought some RV Slide Seal Conditioner and applied it to all the seals surrounding the slide. I checked underneath and on top for potential obstructions/debris and all was clear. I also removed the piece of trim on the inside to give me access to the meter, gear box, chains and cables. All chains and cables are tight and have very little slack; one being more tight than the other. The cables and chains are also not touching each other. It looks like the "jumping" may be coming from the gear box. After doing some more research on Youtube and other sites, and there are plenty of videos out there on how to replace. So I ordered a new one. Will be replacing next week after it arrives and I will keep you posted on the outcome.
