Coil spring is sprung

Handy Person from Cincinnati, Ohio
One side of the window makes a clicking sound when you try to open or close the window. Window will not go all the way up, and even pushed up as far as it will go (only about halfway) it will sag down to only a couple of inches. On the track on the right side the spring/coil is visible in the window track. There are letters with indent circles next to the letters A, B,C,D,E,F down the center of the plastic. There is a larger number 3 embossed along front left side. There is nothin on the plastic of the shoe on this side but the right side has a 5A embossed in the plastic right above the shoe. I would truly appreciate any assistance you could provide in identifying the proper replacement and a quick 'how to' advice on how to get our window working back to to normal. This is amazing that this service exists. Thank you so much.

Hello,

We can't be sure with the hardware still installed but the pivot shoe shown in your photos resembles the 15-177 shown below.

This shoe is used with the Series 152 coil springs and the related items listed on our product pages. I would recommend removing your coil balance from the window to compare to these parts and locate the stamped numbers on the coils to choose the corresponding strength options. Also, look over the related videos to help you through the repair process. Thank you!
