Restringing day night shade..help

[Rolin]

The string in our daynight shade broke. Any web site that has restringing instructions? Not sure if we have to remove the valance or if we need new string. An suggestions appreciated. We have a Winnebago aspect26a.

We've repaired two sets, not hard, just time consuming and it is best with two sets of hands. In our mh you do not have to remove the valance, but the screws are hard to find on top. Good luck

X2 on that. I just restrung one of mine. What a job it was to do. I now have problems with the night time part of the shade working correctly. I am going to change all of my day/night shades to mini blinds. JMO

Thanks rockhillmanor, will try to find a kit in Halifax.

They now have kits for day/night shades repair and are sold at almost all camping stores.
There is a complete diagram that is included in the package with the correct type of strings, holding screws etc.
