01 Bambi 19, repair screw type actuators?

Hi all. My vent windows with screw type acuators went from working fine to non functional one day to the next. I always lubed the various links but on opening it seems the worm gear suddenly slips and window will not open further. Everything seems riveted and not easily accessed. Any words of wisdom for repair would be appreciated. Front window and window over sink are effected.
Thanks!

I haven't taken the window-opening mechanisms on our 2002 19' Bambi apart, but do know that the windows are from Hehr. A quick search turned up what looks to be the same mechanism as in our trailer: https://www.all-rite.com/torque-operator.html and at the bottom of this page: http://parkin-acc.com/page3.html. There are YouTube videos about replacing the things: and (there are probably others).

Thanks Tim A! I have searched but cannot find anything like my setup. It is a single torque operator per vent window with a knurled knob that turns a splined stem. There are parts similar on the web but will not work.
I have been dissapointed and surprised by the lack of model specific info when doing other repairs on the Bambi.

Our trailer has the same single knob setup.

Why not contact Hehr? They have a number of locations with email addresses and telephone numbers: http://hehrintl.com/contacts.html
