My designer diamond gives me a message that machine needs to rest ,but I have not used it in over 24 hours. I press the ok button but it continues to give me the same message.

When turned on my machine today, I got the message that it was tired. I pressed the ok button when prompted but continued to get same message. I turned it off and tried again but got same message. I've been using this machine for 5 years and have never seen this message. What should I do now?

It is either the motor that needs replacing or the power supply. I've seen both. There is an updated power supply that was recently recommended by Viking. These parts should still be covered by the Manufacturer Warranty (provided you are the original owner and purchased from an Authorized Viking Dealer). Take the machine to an Authorized Viking Dealer. If it is still warranty, you should only be charged for the service/labor for the repair. You can find a local dealer by checking the Viking website at http://www.husqvarnaviking.com/us and going to the Locate a Dealer link.

Good luck. I know how frustrating this can be.

SOURCE: Grinding sound

Yes, have the machine checked out. The noise is probably coming from the belt and is nothing more than an annoyance. Make sure that you inform your technician that it doesn't make the sound for several hours so that he/she will know how to properly test it.

Please take your machine to a qualified technician. A good cleaning can never hurt but a drop of oil in the wrong place may cause your machine to require major repairs. The shaft bearings in this machine require no lubrication and applying machine oil to these bearings may cause them to seize.

SOURCE: designer 1 embroidery problem

If the machine is reading the file to not be found it is probably that the designs are on the floppy but the person sending did not read them to the floppy right. they should have been read thru the softwear.

SOURCE: Designer One "broken thread"

If the upper thread spool is spinning allowing slack to the inlet of the tension assy and the machine gives a broken thread indication shortly afterward, the pre-tension assy needs to be adjusted. If the machine has the original "snap in" tension assy that was in the first generation of Designer 1, have it replaced with the modern "lay in" tension assy. Slack at the spool should never cause a broken thread indication as long at the thread is in the pre-tension assy.
Sulky thread will work as well in a Designer 1 as any other embroidery thread as long as it is properly adjusted.
One thing that you can look for, when the machine is sewing, watch the thread as it passes out of the left hand side of the tension disks. It should exit the disks at the 9 o'clock position. If it starts to drift up to the 10 or 11 position and then you get a broken thread warning, the pre tension must be increased.

Make sure that the red disk (smaller than a floppy) on the underside of your embroidery unit has been removed. Remove and discard the red disk. It is used for shipping purposes only. Joyce

My husqvarna diamond keep telling me that it needs to rest. When I touch ok it makes hum the says need to rest. It wouldn't start sewing g

There could be a few different issues that could cause your Husqvarna Diamond sewing machine to display a "need to rest" message and not start sewing. Here are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the problem:
Check the machine's power supply: Make sure the machine is plugged in and the power cord is securely connected to both the machine and the outlet.
Check the machine's threading: Make sure the thread is correctly threaded through the machine and the bobbin is correctly installed. If the threading is incorrect, it can cause the machine to stop sewing and display a "need to rest" message.
Check the machine's tension: If the tension is not set correctly, it can cause the machine to stop sewing and display a "need to rest" message. Try adjusting the tension and see if that resolves the issue.
Check for any debris or lint buildup: Lint and debris can accumulate in the machine and cause it to stop sewing. Clean the machine according to the manufacturer's instructions to remove any debris.
If you have tried these troubleshooting steps and the machine is still not sewing, you may need to have it serviced by a professional. It is always a good idea to follow the manufacturer's recommended maintenance schedule and have the machine serviced regularly to keep it running smoothly.

Machine needs to rest message

When you see this message, wait until the OK message is enabled. Tap the OK button and then resume sewing. This message occurs often enough to be listed in the manual under Pop-up messages in both the Sewing and Embroidery section. (That starts on the last few pages of each of these "chapters".) Turning off the machine while this message is displayed may cause on issue with the on-board computer.

For the Husqvarna Viking Designer Diamond Royale, you can find the manual on the product page: http://www.husqvarnaviking.com/en-US/Machines/DESIGNER-DIAMOND-Royale . The direct link to the manual is http://www.husqvarnaviking.com/getattachment/Machines/DESIGNER-DIAMOND-Royale/Designer_Diamond_Royale_manual_ENG.pdf.aspx . The pop-up for the Machine needs to rest is shown on pages 4-26 and 8-14 (pages 74 and 123 of the PDF). The Designer Ruby Royale has the messages on pages 4-24 and 8-14 (70 and 116 of the PDF). The manual for this machine is here: http://www.husqvarnaviking.com/SiteMedia/Products/Machines/-%20DESIGNER%20RUBY%20Royale/Manual/Ruby_Royale-manual-EN.pdf .

I hope this helps. If the message comes up after a few minutes of sewing (under 5), I would recommend that you consider cleaning the bobbin area. Sometimes a flossing swab can help remove debris that has gotten into the corners below the bobbin. If that doesn't help, your machine may need to be serviced.

Will not sew continuestly when im embrodering when i press the reverse button

It is completely normal for a Bernina 180 and other Bernina models to stitch just a few stitches and stop after first pushing the reversing button. The reason for this is so you can cut off the extra piece of top thread so it does not get caught up in the embroidery design. After you cut off that extra piece of thread, press the reversing button (hold it in till the machine starts) then it will continue with the design. Assuming you do not have a problem (a message would come up on the screen) or you are out of bobbin thread, the machine will continue to embroider till either the design is finished or it stops because you need to change the upper thread to the next color. Each time you start to embroider it will stitch about 3 or so stitched and stop. Cut off the extra thread and press the reversing button again to continue.
If this is not the problem you are having then you need to describe your problem better, in more detail.
This should help! Bill
