Re: Roof Light Blind Issue
See this previous thread for the same problem:
https://www.autosleeper-ownersforum.com/t35674-roller-blind-replacement?highlight=velcro#315635
PS Just noticed yours is a new van so shouldn't really be having this problem already. When you slide fully to either end, it should click into place and be held there - if it's gone sloppy already then I'd suggest getting it looked at under warranty.

Re: Roof Light Blind Issue
Thanks for your reply, its not gone sloppy its still taught, the problem I believe is there is too much tension on the blind and it just creeps back.
I've seen the other post and mine is exactly the same issue, I've had a few issues with this van none of which should have been present given the cost, the main one that really was crap was the mounting of the Harmony screen which I have now sorted properly - AS can buy my design if they wish, it won't push through yet is easily removeable if required.

Re: Roof Light Blind Issue
my blind does that in my Neuvo.
On a related matter I experience quite a lot of wind noise from this skylight when driving at 55MPH plus. Dealer has told me that it is a feature of this type of skylight. Wondering whether you encounter the same issue

Wind noise is because it does not have a seal strip on the full perimeter, requirement of providing regulatory minimum ventilation. you can buy the full seal and replace to reduce wind noise.

Re: Roof Light Blind Issue
Noise is associated with the mandatory ventilation....according to the Installation/User instructions with a Seitz Mini Heki Rooflight that I have just obtained. They offer models with or without the ventilation and recommend the latter for mounting near the cab area. If you are stuck with a ventilated rooflight, they recommend fitting a deflector upwind of the rooflight.

Re: Roof Light Blind Issue
I had the same problem with the Heki over our lounge. Same cure - add the other three sides of seal strip. Bonus was that the strip I bought has a brushed surface so doesn't stick to the Heki.PLOUGHLIN wrote:Neuvobluebird wrote:my blind does that in my Neuvo.

Re: Roof Light Blind Issue
I have the same issue …. In mine it’s the fly screen which is stronger than the blind and plus it back to just under the half way position.
