Have you tried your local 'ferreteria'?

Will do thanks
A couple of mine went and I had the hard wired ones that are in the wall that go to the handle. I went to Leroy Merlin and bought from there and replaced them myself with the help of a friend. They wasnt that difficult to do and took about 2 hours. I had someone repair one before and it cost €75 so based on another two need changing I went the DIY route.
Have a go and good luck!

I replaced some and the cost for the cord and mechanism was about 8 euros each from a local ferreteria. Only took and hour - after the first one! While you are at it get some spray grease and use it on the top roller bearings and the spring mechanism, makes for quieter operation and longer life.
