I have had this, but mine was thread wrapped around ?? a wheel thing inside, managed to get it off with st,ripper and tweezers...wendy
12506Never had this to happen but I did have to fix my feed dogs one time--like you said--took a plate off at back of machine, cleaned and oiled everything and they've worked fine now for a few years. That was on my old Kenmore that I got in the 80's and still use it most of the time for general sewing. We can be brilliant sometimes.
18265Thank goodness I have never had this happen. Well done for fixing the problem
253102I once had the problem where I couldn't hit the "top speed". Turned out to be the foot pedal had a worn-out part in it, and was able to be fixed with a replacement part [thankfully]

24329I turned mine on last week, the lights were on but now one was home so to speak so wasn't sure what went wrong the motor or the foot pedal nothing happened. Luckily it was a broken wire in the pedal cord but was told can't get these pedals anymore and Dave used the last of his wire to fix it. I was congratulated on how clean and well oiled she was.

109762I had something similar happen years ago and it was the electrical cord that went into the foot pedal had been knocked and was loose and coming out and in. Took me ages to work that one out.
Glad you are up and running again.
