Our 920 platform on a 9400 bounces like crazy when dial-a-matic in 2nd or 3rd cutting pressure position. Header works fine in 1st position but must be adjusted with more down pressure than I like. Have adjusted box on end of head several times as per book. We also have adjusted header drop and dial-a-matic flow screws located on valve stacks and adjusted nitrogen bottle at one and two turns out. Anyone with some ideas for a solution?

Have your John Deere check the nitrogen pressure in the accumulator.

You can check the accumulator yourself. Open the accumulator tap, lift header all the way and hold switch for another ten seconds to fill accumulator. Close tap, lower header a few inches from ground, shut off combine. Slowly open accumulator tap. Header should raise a noticable amount if accumulator charge is still good.

Also check for any looseness in the height control sensor, particularily the roll pin holding the sensor onto the sensing rod.
