I have several machines but not a Brother. Have you tried typing in your Model number on the internet and asking the question there? Best wishes, Kate
SOURCE: machine will not sew forward without backstitching
You have selected the Stretch Stich (SS) mode on the stitch length regulator, just turn the knob around until you have a number 1 - 5 and that should be it.
The model number will be the last digits on the metal compliance plate with voltage etc.....looks like:
V / 1234 / 123454321 / 2016

This then would be a Model 2016
SOURCE: Viking 190 sewing machine stuck on backstitch
Found the problem (s) with Viking stuck on backstitch!!!
Two problems:
A: machine is "gummed-up" form old grease.
Solution: degrease machine with a high quality degreaser.. I used a spray electrical degreaser from an automotive store. Turn the machine up-side-down to preform this!
Then relubricate machine. Use a high quality sweing machine lubricant! Also lubricate the inner parts with a qigh quality "Sewing machine" oil.
B: Found that the return spring from foreward to backward was tired.
Soultion: Replace with slightly stronger spring from local hardware store.
If you need pictures, I took very detailed pictures of the reverse mechanism and "return to forward" spring.

SOURCE: Viking sewing machine model 6430 will only sew backwards
Th cam stack gears have gummed up on you you can try getting the back cover off along with the side and soaking the machine down with wd-40 and running it while forcing the reverse button in and out if it breaks free try and soak up as much of the wd-40 as you can and then oil anything that moves. I know this may be discouraging but viking no longer supports this machine and you might be better off taking it to an older viking dealer for help.
The start/stop button was pressed while the foot controller
was connected.
Disconnect the foot controller,
and then press the start/
stop button. Otherwise,
operate the machine by
using the foot controller.
Hope this helps.
