How to fix blinds [clicking noise]

[@downthehollow8699]

The Internet is a wonderous place. I search for something and I find the exact solution I was looking for.

OMG!!! I have been trying to figure this out for months and here this video pops up and only took 45seconds to teach me what’s happening and I can fix it myself! I’m really happy I found this video because I was about to buy new blinds!!!! Thank you so much!!!

THANK you, AdamDIY! I am completely useless at little home repairs like this, but am beginning to have some success, thanks to videos like this on the internet. So, I agree with Downthehollow -- the internet is a wonderous place!

Thanks for the info, but it would be even better if you had a link for the replacement part, I'm having trouble finding the half moon one like yours.

I sprayed WD40 into the wand opening, held a paper towel against it to keep the sprays contained, I fixed 4 of my blinds this way!!

[@jennacardellicchio5063]

Thank you for this comment!! Such an obvious trick but I didn’t think of it-saved me the trouble of buying a new piece because the WD40 did the job :)

Brillant! Just what I needed to know, thank you! 👍

When searching, type "blind tilt mechanism" I hope this helps

Hi Adam. I need to fix my clicking wand mechanism on my blinds. Your video is very helpful regarding “how.” I am finding, online, control arms that look the same as mine but either the measurements are wrong or the gear hole is not square, like mine. I don’t know what to do and can’t find anyone to help. Is there any flexibility in the measurement, as long as it doesn’t exceed the housing size?

I found replace wand piece free because blinds were from warrantied by manufacturer when I called them, I got them now for whole house!

[@HikariSakai]

We used a leaf blower in my room to clear some dust and broke the blinds when aiming it towards them, didn't realize these things were fragile like that

[@armyguyavnret]

Thank you for the information.

What are those blinds? I am looking for that style of mounting bracket blinds and can’t find them. I can find the regular brackets though.

[@sabby559]

How do you replace the piece that holds the rod the little hook? What is the hook called? Mine is broken😢

[@MRMR-mu4yx]

The wand tilt works but only when the blinds are pulled up halfway or more.

[@Brendelson]

I just bought my cordless blinds and immediately after installing them, they won’t open fully and I get the clicking sound. Is it really just needing a new part already?

[@mranderson5668]

why did it break to begin with??

[@ampecsu]

of course I just donated a box of unused blinds to goodwill and not 1 week later after having these blinds for DECADES this happens....coulda use a donor part...
