My elna 7000 sewing machine speed all of a sudden is very slow, does not work in reverse, or does not want to make any stiches? What can be wrong?

The elna 7000 is an electronic machine. I can select the differnt stiches etc, but it only stich forward and does not stich the selected stich. It stiches very slow, but not the selected stich, and only forward not backwards. Could it be due to not enough oil, as i did not use the machine for quite some time and did not oil it before use?

Looks like this is a mechanical machine. If so, bet it needs a good cleaning and oiling. The following may be helpful:

It was working now it seems to be frozen the needle part wont move

Definitely get some good quality sewing machine oil. Sounds like the machine has basically seized, including the stitch selectors.

If you bend over the front of the machine, you will see a slider switch on the back of the machine, and there is a small "button" at the bottom right of the switch (your right). If you push this button down, you can slide the slider switch to your right and the feed dogs will go up.

SOURCE: sewing machine stopped making the stich

Unthread the needles, rethread the loopers properly, then rethread the needles. Make sure that all four threads are pulled securely into the tensions and retry.

The loopers must always be threaded before the needles or it will not chain.

Elna sewing machine 7000 geting bobin won't go through the feed dog

sorry, not sure I understand your problem. can you elaborate?

Have you got the correct Elna bobbin for your machine? check your manual, it should have an image of the bobbin, the 7000 was one of the last Swiss made Elnas and although a computerised machine, it still tool the Elna metal bobbin with 7 holes on one side only. If you are using another bobbin in the shuttle, it may not function correctly.

if you can add some more info I will try to help you further.

I am looking for an elna 7000 sewing machine workbook, not a manual but the workbook.

you could try Marina's Little SHoppe on Ebay.com, she carries a range of elna service manuals on CD so may have the 7000 too.

Tech says it needs a controller for an elna 7000. is that part still available? he means speed control

I am sure it is. He/she should have elaborated on the replacement cost.

Are you referring to a foot pedal or does this model have the start/stop button and slow/fast selection?

A foot pedal can be ordered from an online site that sells parts and accessories for sewing machines.

The other function I mentioned has to be fixed by a sewing machine repair person.
