I had a bottom opening window which would not open due to broken opening mechanism one side was free,the other side stuck. Tried forums,u tube etc no joy.Thought my insurance had run out but on checking, it hadn't so called them and service engineer came round and this is how he fixed it....
Established which side was locked, applied a little pressure then wellied the opposite side (lower corner) twice with the heel of his hand thus springing the stuck side-I was gobsmacked! Mechanism replaced total time 10 min. No damage whatsoever.
May be of use to someone-the direction of the blows was sideways.
