Did you lube the rollers under the slide? Just lift rubber flap on inside bottom use a flashlight and a very little lube on the ends of roller pins.
Did you lube the swinteck drive assemblies on each side of the slide?
LCI has great online training on this slide and maintenance of it. Watch the videos. Slide needs to be slightly retracted so you can get in on each end and pull the rubber flaps back.
For normal operation Make sure you always run them all the way out or all the way in and hold the switch for 5 seconds after it stops moving. That keeps the slide motors sync'd up. Otherwise they can get out of sync and slide can end up crocked in the wall and jam.
On the passenger side it is a rack and pinion style. A little dry lube on the tubes helps keep them nice and quiet.
There are rollers under it as well but you need slide part way out to access.
Bedroom slide is swinteck as well

Our 2020 30.5 CKTS has 3 slide outs. The one on the passenger side is our largest and has the “through the frame” operation. When we push the slide “out”, it squeals badly/loudly. Coming in, totally quiet. I have used a dry lube on the rails that support the slide and move it out, didn’t help. Have lifted the rubber seal across the bottom and can’t see rollers on the underside, but I’m sure there are some there (I think). Anyone know of a way to quiet this slide back to it’s normal quiet operation?
