Hi all glad i have found this site
My disabled mother has motorised curtains in her bedroom, this morning they have broken. The power unit appears to have broken or died.
The problem is i cant seem to operate the curtains manually (she had a similar situation in the lounge but these are operated manually now which is fine)
any ideas? i am not very diy wise :)
thanks

A relative of mine has Swish Autoglide / Silent Gliss curtain track. They seem to be very unreliable and, on the occasions when a visitor has tried to operate them manually, it buggers them up.
Some of the old motors have been discontinued but you could try this site for refurbished units/advice:

this is a newsgroup, not a website
appears to... does it produce the right voltage out or not?
Well, I'd start by fault finding. See if the power supply is producing powe= r or not. You need a basic multimeter for that, rapidonline do them for abo= ut =A32. Check the rail see if they cord's jammed etc. When you know what t= he problem is, we might know how to fix it.
