DW has repaired each one of the 6 shades in our TT, some of them more than once. Seems to be an annual activity in the middle of the camping season. DW has it down to a science now. She purchased a roll of cord, to keep... just in case. The single shade string packages they sell (on Amazon) do not last long. There are 2 and 4 string shades, watch the videos to find out the difference and how to do each. Don't panic, it is a lot easier than it sounds, I am the assistant when and if needed. It now takes less than a half an hour to do one shade.
If your TT is still under warranty, contact JAYCO (service@jayco.com) as the shades are covered under the warranty.
Buy the chord at https://www.fixmyblinds.com/ Buy a spool of the 2.0mm chord. They also have videos on how to do it. Get the spool of chord, just in case.
You can also Google : "youtube repair rv shades"
and ALL the how-to videos will pop up for you. Watch them a bunch of times before starting, watch different ones and you will see which is the best way to do it, for you. If you have a tablet, you can get the video up while you are changing the strings, and pause it when you need to.
