Aileron rigging

If we push up or down on an aileron to it’s full travel, it over centers one of the bell cranks and jams the ailerons in that position.You can lightly move the opposite aileron and they will free up. It never jams moving the stick to full aileron, just when you go outside and  move an aileron itself (doesn’t matter which side) to full travel. Has anyone else run into this problem or have suggestions on what might cause this?
