    Pfaff 2144--I see that i can buy a new cord to attach the pedal to the machine, but the foot press doesn't easily come apart after i unscrew the screws. Is there a secret way to open it up so i can replace the cord?

SOURCE: Old model Bernina 830, running ok, then kept

There is a thing called a suppressor which is normally located in the foot control which has fused, you need to open the foot control and you should see a a small thing that looks liuke a fuse connected to the two terminals which you need to take out and discard because you don't need it any more, if you don't have on in the control then it will be on the motor which means you will have to take it in for repair.

SOURCE: I have a Kenmore sewing

Buy a new foot pedal for it, probably one of the electrical components inside the foot has failed.

There are Kenmore footcontrols for sale on www.sewingpartsonline.com. You could email them to check its right for your model if it isn't listed.

Obviously I'm assuming that you are in USA with 110 Voltage and that is what your machine is. If not and your country is 220V, you would need to source it from a reseller in your own country or another with the same voltage.

SOURCE: Run away foot pedal.

I had this problem with my Janome and also after I was given a new foot pedal as well, even though no fault could be found with it. I then suspected power surges as my computer went haywire at the same time on one occasion. I have never yet had the problem since I started to use surge sockets. I have only ever had the problem with my computerised machine, not my other although the foot pedals are the same.

SOURCE: foot pedal dead, machine keeps sewing!

Sounds like your foot control is faulty.
I can supply foot controls for 99% of sewing machines.

I have a Brother 4234D Overlocker/Serger. The power cord - foot pedal cord has one plug into the machine and then the two cords coming from that. One goes to the power plug and foot pedal.
I believe it is two wires. The cord could be cut and extended any reasonable length so long it is done in accordance with requured regulations.

Basically, whatever materials and method you use to extend the cable must meet the same specifications and safety requirements of the original.

Hi, My Quantum 9960, needs the bobbin refilled, but the machine shows me an icon of the foot paddle, then an icon of machine and conect? cord. The cord is connected, I've tried it 3x. Don't know what to...
Is there an up arrow in the icon you see? What you describe could be the Release foot controller pedal icon. Take your foot off the foot pedal. See the trouble-shooting page on page 102 of the manual. The manual is available from Singer here: http://www.singerco.com/uploads/download/5b9200a32cfd31ffc30b8d29fd195a57dff4a9e3.pdf .

You are supposed to take your foot off the controller (or press Stop) after winding a few turns of thread on the bobbin. Trim the excess thread above the bobbin. Then step on the foot controller or press Start. Release the foot pedal again when the machine stops winding the bobbin. See page 28 of the manual for the procedure.

I hope this helps. If you do not have the Release foot controller icon displayed, please add a longer description of the icon or indicate which icon from the trouble-shooting section of the manual that is closer to the one you see. If you have released the foot controller and the icon persists, then something may be wrong with the control pedal. A replacement control pedal is ~$35; see http://www.sewingpartsonline.com/singer-9960-quantum-stylist-parts.aspx .

I have a "singer" sewing machine, model 1022. Everything was working fine but now the foot pedal won't work. How do I take this apart to repair? How/Can it be repaired?
If you're unsure how to repair it, take it to a repair shop. You can cause more damage trying to fix something, plus parts may be hard to come by for the consumer.

Designer 1 foot pedal won't work
Have you tried using another Designer 1 foot control? It is more likely that the problem is a loose connection at the machine. Do not cut anything apart on the foot control unless you are certain that is where the problem lies.Take the machine in to an authorized dealer and have them test it for you. Find out EXACTLY what is not working. No need to buy a foot control and find out that the connectors on the machine are not properly attached.

How to repair a non-working foot peddle on a Singer 6215C
There are a few things you can do. If you are even a little technically savvy, UNPLUG the sewing machine then take a detailed look at the pedal cord from the pedal all the way to the machine and check for any damage, pinch points, etc. If it all looks good, you should be able to open the foot pedal to see inside. There should be a small limit switch that actuates when the foot pedal is depressed. Manually cycle the pedal to ensure that the pedal mechanism is making contact with the limit switch. Listen to the limit switch as it should click when you first engage the pedal. I cannot tell you exactly what you would have to do to replace the pedal but after you have exhausted what I have suggested, I would take it to a sew & vac shop and they can replace it for you. It should not be that expensive. You can call one or two shops and get quotes for replacing the pedal.

Foot control will not work machine just stoped mid stich
Try using the Start/Stop button instead. It works just like the food pedal. You might like to bring the speed down first or else it will take off like a rocket when you press the button! You hit the button again when you want to stop. Sounds like you might need to replace the food pedal - unfortunately an expensive item. Try taking it out of the machine, coiling up the cord, uncoil it and re-insert being sure to push the plug in firmly. Check along the length of the foot pedal cord to see if there are any cuts in the cord. If there are, it will definitely need replacing.

White 1934d Superlock foot pedal/lead cord
Go to your local dealer and let him replace what you have with a generic foot control. Should take him about 15 minutes. What kind of problem do you have with the one you have? If it is a cord problem it may have to be ordered from a wholesale supplier or a white dealer may have one in stock.

Foot pedal assembly for White sewing machine
You only need to replace the cord if it has been damaged. It will cost less if you just take the machine , cord and control to a local technician and have him just replace the foot control. Let him test it first. A generic foot control should cost less than $30.
