Having electronic shades in your home can be a great way to control the amount of light that comes in, as well as the temperature of your home. But when those electronic shades start to malfunction, it can be a major headache. Fortunately, there are some easy and simple steps you can take to fix your electronic shades and get them working again.
Step 1: Check the Power Source
The first step is to check the power source for your electronic shades. Make sure that they are plugged in correctly and that there is power going to them. If not, then you may need to replace the power source or reset the circuit breaker.
Step 2: Check for Obstructions
The next step is to check for any obstructions that may be preventing your electronic shades from working properly. This could include things like furniture, curtains, or other items that are blocking the path of the shade’s motor. If you find any obstructions, remove them so that the shade can move freely again.
Step 3: Clean and Lubricate
Once you have checked for any obstructions, it’s time to clean and lubricate your electronic shades. Use a soft cloth or brush to remove any dirt or debris from the tracks and gears of your shade’s motor. Then apply a light lubricant such as WD-40 or silicone spray to help keep everything moving smoothly.
Step 4: Test It Out
Once you have cleaned and lubricated your electronic shades, it’s time to test them out. Open and close them several times to make sure they are working properly again. If they still don’t seem to be functioning correctly, then it may be time to call in a professional for help.
