Hmm... if I'm reading this right, the balances would shoot up in the channel, preventing your windows from operating properly. Once you took the sash off, you couldn't put it back into the window because the balances still wouldn't stay down.
Sounds to me like it's a problem with the top sash guide. The top sash guide is a plastic clip installed on the two top corners of your sash that keep the balance in place and prevent it from shooting up in the track. See the video below for clarification on how this works. |
