HOME with my machine exactly the same!!! Technician totally baffled. He phoned head office in Johannesburg and they said it was a fault in some of the machines. The new 'innards' will arrive on Monday but I will only take my machine in the following Monday to be fixed. It was absolutely fascinating seeing my machine in bits - they are such clever machines. While I waited I bought lots of things, which of course do not really need :) Sarah.

Sarah, so glad things are looking up for your machine !

I am guilty of overbuying when waiting in a sewing store !

Hugs, Bonnie

Too bad that the "home office" didn't notify their dealers that there were potential problems with these machines...that would have saved a lot of time and grief!!! Glad you will be getting it fixed...the home office should reimburse you for your time and gas!!!

Especially the petrol (gas) as it is quite a drive.

I'm glad they're taking care of it for you, and putting all new "innards" into it, hee hee hee. It's so nice to have a dealer that will take care of you when there's a problem, and see that it gets solved. Once they fix it, you can get back to having fun with it again! Happy for you, hugs, Marji

I can actually use it when it decides to turn on. It is a bit hit and miss but when it is on it works perfectly. Have used it all weekend.

I am so glad they will fix it for you. I hope it is perfect when they are finished.

I have always thought that the funnest shopping is for things we don't really need! :)

So happy for you Sarah that they found the problem so soon. And I'm sure you had a little fun buying the "not-needed" stuff ;o)
