    Bless you! 🙏
    I fiddled around with the remote for quite some time, then Googled how to troubleshoot the problem with my remote… it would beep when I pressed the buttons to raise or lower. I knew the battery was good/new, and the lights would glow on the remote. Blind manufacturer websites were of no help at all (didn’t even mention the battery pack). Thank goodness I found your video. I had no idea that the battery “tube” was up there! You’d think the company that installed them would clue the customer in.
    Replaced the batteries (8 AA), and it now works like new.
    THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
    I’ve subscribed to your channel and now know where to go for help. 🏆

    Thank you so much. Turns out the single window blind needed to be set on 1. Fixed. Kudos

    Question re Dooya tubular motors. I had two shades fail to stop on opening and jammed at the top. Depressing the tiny button on the motor does not do anything. Is there a motor fuse that can be reset to make them operational again?.

      That sounds like the problem I'm having now . The shade would go up and the shade would stop when I told it to but it wouldn't go down so I let it go all the way to the top to see if that would reset it but now it's stuck at the top. Did you ever find a solution?

    Hi! Helpful video! I was thinking about buying the motorized version of these shades. When I found out that the batteries have to be replaced (and are therefore not rechargeable with a mini USB etcetera) , that is a bit off-putting. Using the up and down once or twice a day, how often are you changing those batteries? Wondering if I shouldn't just opt for the manual raising and lowering version?

    • @MikeKlimek
      @MikeKlimek  Год назад +1

      Each blind takes 8 AA batteries and I go through a lot of them. Go manual instead!

    I have a remote that looks about like yours and after I replaced the batteries in the shade it will accept the command to go up but it won't accept a command to go down. It looks like the remote is transmitting but the receiver isn't responding. Do you have any recommendations?

    • @MikeKlimek
      @MikeKlimek  6 месяцев назад

      I would say either the charge cable is bad, the charging unit won't keep a charge, or maybe even the outlet supplying power is tripped off (that one is easy to test though)

    Hi - my remote operated blind doesn't go alllll the way down anymore. It stops (evenly, on both sides) about 1.5 inches above the windowsill, where it used to stop for the year-plus that we've had it. I tried programming a different channel to see if I could get it to go all the way down once more, but it still stops well before the windowsill. Any tips? Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

      I've not seen individual panels for the motor units. I would start off by checking the connections from the panel to the motor.

    Hi Mike
    My blinds have NICE electric motors connected to power. No batteries in it and hence no replacement.
    It is remotely operated by NICE remote which uses 2 x CR2430 batteries.
    Do you have a video for replacement of the batteries for this remote?

    • @MikeKlimek
      @MikeKlimek  2 года назад

      I don't, but there has to be a sliding cover, a screw to remove, or a cover that snaps on and off to access the batteries

    • @esskay1948
      @esskay1948 2 года назад

      @@MikeKlimek There isn't any screw to hold 2 sides of the cover.
      It has two push buttons on sides near the bottom of the case. Pushing these on both sides, 2 batteries dropped out of the bottom with the battery holder which has one place to hold half of the first battery. The 2nd battery can only be inserted into the opening but there is no way to put in right place and on right side. The two sides of the cover does not open.
      This is why would I put my question.

      Mine has a sliding door on the back of the remote on the bottom. It even has an arrow to show which direction it slides. If yours has this, just push down on the door and slide down. You may also have a small groove in the edge of the remote to stick a screwdriver or edge of a coin to twist to release the door

    We have remote control shades which are not working. The blind plugs into an electrical outlet, but the remote does not raise or lower the blinds ... they are stuck half-way open. We have changed the batteries in the remote but do not know what else to do. We appreciate your help.
