Just bought two more controllers today, thank you.

Thanks for the video idea! Glad to hear that you got your new blinds figured out.

Taking down a vertical blind by yourself can be difficult because it is typically at least six feet wide. Probably a good idea to ask a friend to help!

Hi Monty, The magnet catch is to keep the blinds closed when they are fully covering the window. The tilt mechanism catches onto the magnet to keep the blinds in place.

Hi Eric, the part in this video is for Levolor blinds. But, if your blinds don't have a brand shown on them, they could still be Levolor. If you're not sure which replacement part you need, feel free to email us some pictures of the part you need. Our email is service@fixmyblinds.com.

Hi there, if you could email us a few pictures of your blinds where you need to snap in the new stem, we can give you some specific advice. Our email is service@fixmyblinds.com.

If that is a brand new blind, I'd return it to the store. It sounds like it's defective as there is no way to realign the clips.

@@fixmyblinds Thank you for your reply. It turns out that Levolor has a unique way of adjusting carrier orientation and I found it in their FAQs, with minor adjustment from their instructions. Here is the full excerpt from their site to share with the community:" Begin by positioning the mis-aligned vane(s) in the fully open position. Next, remove the misaligned vane from its clip, by gently pressing upwards and outwards until the vane releases from the clip. With a pair of pliers, grab the clip that previously held the vane and push it gently upwards until it snaps back into the headrail. Spin the wand until all vanes are in the fully opened position. Once that has occurred, grab your pliers and gently pull down on the clip so that the missing vane can be reattached to its clip." EXCEPTION: in my case for Trim + Go, I have to rotate the clip until the body is aligned with its holder, then using the pliers, push the pin upward. It will retract to the headrail. Then rotate the entire blind until all carriers are flat, then pull down the mis-aligned clip. After that, all will be aligned with each other.

Wow; those are great instructions! Thank you for sharing that information you found!

@@fixmyblinds Glad to help! and again thanks for making the original video.

Hi Jim, There could be a couple of different things broken on your verticals. Would you please email us some pictures of your broken blind and where the wand isn't connected any longer? Based on those pictures, we can let you know what is going on and if it can be repaired. Our email address is service@fixmyblinds.com.

@@fixmyblinds I emailed it to you.

Hi there, the magnet catch keeps the blinds closed when the slats are totally covering the window. The tilt mechanism has a small metal plate on it and catches onto the magnet. It isn't designed to move back and forth. It stays on the end so that when the tilt mechanism can catch it. It was just moving around a bit during the video as we repaired the blind.

Hi Olga! Yes, you can email us at service@fixmyblinds.com. We are happy to take a look at your pictures and see what we can do to help!

Hi Gail, I'm not sure which clips you mean. Would you please send some pictures of the parts you're trying to replace to our email? I'd love to give you any directions we may have. Our email is service@fixmyblinds.com.

Hi there; some blinds can be changed just by turning the headrail around and putting the control end of the headrail on your preferred side. But, not all work like that. If you'd like to see if you can do that, please email us a few pictures of your blinds. Our email is service@fixmyblinds.com.

There's no way to remove the clip from the carrier it is attached to. Unfortunately, some blinds are made this way. You may be able to replace the whole carrier, but not just the clip. They only way I know to get parts is to purchase a new headrail at Lowes and use the parts it comes with.

​@@fixmyblindsdo you have a video on how to replace several of the whole carriers? That's what I need to do as well as the wand control mechanism.

Are the slats on your blinds not tilting opened and closed? If so, the tilt mechanism needs to be replaced. But, there are many different types of tilt mechanisms out there. Does your blind look just like the one in the video? Please email us some pictures of the tilt control in your blinds. We can let you know if we have the piece you need. Our email is service@fixmyblinds.com. The link to the tilt mechanism in this video is: fixmyblinds.com/products/vertical-blind-tilt-mechanism-506

You can order parts on our website at www.fixmyblinds.com.

Hi there; that's just the way that Levolor makes this particular headrail. Some verticals have the first slat attached very closely to the tilt mechanism. The wand may hit the slats when opening and closing the blinds.

Hi Daniel, we sell the replacement parts in this video here: bit.ly/3tdVMrJ

Hi Linda, This video and guide will show the basic steps for taking down a vertical blind: fixmyblinds.com/pages/how-to-remove-and-replace-a-vertical-blind.

Hi there, If the first blind holder (carrier) wasn't attached to the wand controller, you wouldn't be able to use the wand to draw the blinds back across the window once they are opened.

Well Mr. Big bucks, go spend $100 on new one, I'm sure the company won't mind. The rest of us will spend $10.99 on a part. 😊

@@steveneal174 I already did, my time is worth more than that.
