Remis blind cord snapped

[Howard B]

One of the cords on a hab area Remis blinds has snapped.
Does anyone know if these are easy to replace? The videos I found online were for an older type blind.

Thanks
Howard

Thread 'Remis pleated blind failure and repair'

I asked about this last year and was able to get a Janet and John guide to disassembly which enabled me to sort the broken strings as they occurred.

This weekend I started to take every blind unit off and refurbish them. They are only 2 years old! The problem for me has been the springs on the white blackout blind strings. These are at the bottom of the frame and suffer from a damp environment due to their proximity to the base of even a partially open window. AND they are ordinary steel. They corrode and break into pieces in some cases, but also leech rust onto the string as well as...

Took the blind from around the window. Unfortunately the cord is secured in one of the tracks and not by a screw in a top corner.

Pain in the neck. Our blind above the cook top had a cord snap. In the end took down another blind and followed the stringing route. It’s not 100% but we now use with care and it’s lasted over six months.

I asked CamperUK if there was a repair kit available, but apparently not. Will need to try and find some suitable cord to sort it out, it looks straightforward enough to restring. Pretty disappointing on the three year old van though.
