If it is wobbly, then perhaps your hinges are broken. You may want to take it apart and have a look. It is possible that you have a loose connector that you might just fix by plugging it in. PBParts.com has a steel hinge fix for the Wallstreet. The part costs a bit more than $100 and they installed mine with no additional labor charge. Highly recommended!
