Thank you, thank you...I was going down a different rabbit hole & then I discovered your video. I'm a single woman who does her own maintenance (when I can). Thank you again!
Hi Wisc Repair Guy I'm tryng to repair a broken continous cord shade by Levelor. Your Video is great, I remoced the clutch assembly, but I can't get the cover off the clutch assembly. It is moving, I unhooked one side, but I'm afaid In will snap the thin plastic cover. Do you have a suggstion? AND... Do you have a video that shows how to adjust a cord that pulls up the shades unevenly??? Thank you for producing this video, it is very helpful. Joyce
Terri Hayes+ The tensioner is actually made of 2 parts which you can snap apart with the aid of a small screwdriver bit. Be gentle with it though - these plastic parts get brittle with age and sun exposure. There is a colored plastic piece that "locks" one end of the tensioner parts together; on mine, that plastic lock piece was amber in color. Once apart, you can re-insert the cord in the tensioner and snap it back together. Good luck!
You can't...if you are really proficient with a sewing machine you can sew them back together, but I hear that almost never works right because how bulky the rope becomes.
i replace the continuous cord but not the shades won't drop all the way like they used to. They drop 9/10 of the way. If I keep pulling the cord, they become uneven. any recommendations are appreciated
