You're welcome! I'm glad that my video was of help! 👍👍

I'm glad the video was helpful. In my particular case the unit was a Truth brand, model number 41011 and 41012. I show this information in my video. However, you should actually examine your particular unit to determine the correct brand and model number. This information will be stamped into the arm on your particular unit. Also I show in my video that you should confirm the measurement from the center of the crank pivot to the mounting hole on the arm. This is critical as you need to replace the unit with the same exact length arms. Watch the video to the end, and this will also be shown. Double check all information on your old unit to make certain you order the exact replacement. 👍

I'm glad my video was of help. The repair is a simple one to do, and parts are available online. 👍👍

Hi! I'm glad to be of help, if I can. The mechanism that contains the "gears" for the cranking of the window often spread apart. The housing is made of a white metal and is soft. When the housing deforms or spreads apart a bit, the slight pressure of the housing on the gears is relieved. That can cause the gears to not full mesh, causing the window to not full close. As a temporary "fix", you can remove the closure assembly from the window, and using a vice, slightly squeeze the housing together to put the slight tension back onto the gears. Somehow protect the housing when it's in the vice, otherwise you'll damage the finish. While you can try this, I don't necessarily recommend this as a permanent repair. You will be better off buying new replacement closure units. They aren't that expensive and usually fix the issue. Also, check all pivot points of your window to ensure everything moves as it should with no binding at any spot. I hope this helps, good luck with your repair! 👍👍

@@lilredcrvtt Hello & Thanks very much for the response, after my first message sent i went on old trusty uutbe to see if there was something i was missing, and low and behold there were two adjustment mechanisims on either end of the stationarey control arms, once the ends of each of these are readjusted the window seems to pull in a little further....does this make sense? Apparent the company sells a casement window wrench for these mechanisims that periodically need adjustment. Thanks again!!! the window is now pulling in alot closer than it was....the bottom was easily adjusted but the top was more difficult to adjust, however it is pulling in way further than it was, i dnt think ill be needing a new crank operator just yet. Thanks again for your video, it put a fire under my azz to investigate my window. 👍

@andre7733 you're welcome! I did mention to check for binding along the window, and it seems you have found the adjustment points. A lot of people over look those. I'm glad you found the suitable repair for your window! In my case the closure mechanism was too far gone and needed to be replaced. KZfaq has a lot of very good information, I'm glad you found the right solution. 👍👍
