Dear fellow DIY-ers,
I have a number of Hunter Douglass battery powered DUETTE powerrise blinds installed in our main room. Installation was in 2008, so I believe Hunter Douglas calls this v1.0.
A few blinds have stopped working. Not the batteries, apparently a circuit board or motor failure.
Would anyone know if after-market parts or decommissioned blinds that I could salvage and rebuild into my blinds?
Many thanks, Wil.

I don't know if you are still looking for this fix, or if you did it already, but there are parts out there. I have read in many areas, a common problem is the Battery Bracket Assembly, which I am attempting to replace now. I have another post asking for disassembly instructions. But I also have several of these that just stopped working. If I can figure out how to replace this part, it will be on that string. Please let me know if you figured it out yet, too. Thanx!

Still working on it
The battery bracket is indeed one of the issues. Already fixed 3 of the 12 with a DIY version of the bracket.
Two unit completely dead, circuit board or motor, most likely. These pre-2010 units are hard to find.
Thanks.
