Lunar Lexon Door Blind

I have a Lunar Lexon 2014 model. The blind in the door window has stopped working, no tension/spring. .

Is this easily repairable/replaceable? There appears to be an inner panel on the inside of the door but I don't want to start to remove this if I'm going to make a bad situation worse.

Any advice would be welcome.

    We don't have a Lexon but we do have a Quasar 524 which, I'm guessing will have the same door blind assembly. The blind is attached to the inside of the bezel around the window. The bezel is held in place by 'poppers' ( non-technical term) which are released by gently prizing off the bezel  with something like a strong paint scraper working gently around the inside edge. I had to take ours off because the blind developed a screeching squeak whenever we pulled it down.

    Hope this helps.

    It is probably a Hartal Door blind.  By gently prising around the edge of the fitting it should ping out.  However, not sure you will be able to do anything about the tension as they come as a unit, not like the normal window blinds where you can re tension the spring, but take it off and have a look.  Probably cheque book out and buy a replacement - they are readily available.  Presume you are out of warranty.  Last year the plastic bottom bar (the bit that keeps the blind down) on mine came apart and I could not re fix it, however mine is on a 2009 caravan not a 2014 model.  The part is easy to fit - just gently push the lugs in.
