Hi Rik. I have the same problem with my SC540. Mine was moved the same way, down stairs and in a van.

What was the fix??

Usually the cut carriage cable is the problem, it's also cheap. next often is the cut carriage board, also cheap.

Yep I replaced 2 of them. The blade would jump up and down as it when back and forth over the material.
