Hey Jeff, thanks for reaching out. The information from your shade indicates you have an MCD American Solo manual shade with a 17 mm roller. Your shade is 26" wide x 37" tall, so the 26" width puts it right in the range for the small spring kit. Here is what you’ll need:

MCD Innovations RV Shade Repair Kit - Solo - Small Spring Kit - 17 mm # MC24SR

This kit is designed for 17 mm Solo shades from 20" to 36" wide, so it is the correct size for your 26" wide shade. Since your shade is no longer retracting, this kit replaces the internal spring mechanism responsible for rolling the shade back up.

Which window is this on?
