I accidentally broke the stem on my recliner and thought my blinds were damaged. After some internet research I found a replacement tilt control mechanism and discovered how easy it is to fix your own blinds! You can go to fixmyblinds.com and follow the instructions to measure your blinds and center rod to determine the size of the tilting mechanism you need. They measure the depth and height of the hull, as well as the size and type of center shaft. Mine were 2 1/4" deep and 2" high for a body with a 1/4" square center shaft. Some rods are smaller and some are hexagonal instead of square. Once you've ordered and received a tilt mechanism for your blinds, go to youtube.com and search "how to replace a stick tilt mechanism" The instructions are very simple and I replaced the tilt mechanism in 5 minutes!In my experience I had to use a metal file and some plastic on each side of the shave off the protruding square around the stem so it fits flush into my case.Once I did that it settled in straight away.It was so easy!Now my blinds are fixed and they're like new again!
