My slide had been working fine until recently when it started hanging on the front side during the first 12" of travel. Unassisted, front will hang and the rear will move out or in until it shuts itself off due to a bind condition. If I assist it during that first 12" of travel in or out it will run all the way.

I am wondering if this sounds like a dropped roller issue or some sort of electrical or adjustment problem? And can this be repaired without removing the slide to get to the roller?

Also, I have noticed that the bottom fiberglass trim on the bottom of the slide box in the front has begun to snag on the box opening leading me to believe it has dropped a little on that leading edge. visually it is hard to notice much difference.

Thanks for any advice on the subject
