I checked things out some more and had a thought to try to lift the cartridge up slightly, stuck a piece of cover stock under it, closed the door and now it works perfectly. My guess is misaligned chips or the cartridge guides are somehow worn down.
supply chain and microchip shortage issues...

Also try cleaning the chip on the cart and the corresponding chip reader in the slot with a dry, lint-free cloth or swab.
