Janome 5000Memory craft sewing machine bobbin repair manual needed

You can purchase a stand-alone bobbin winder from the local fabric store (JoAnns or Hancocks) or Amazon.com for ~$25.

Ok this solution may be obvious but I'll say it in case you haven't tried everything; when you put the correct bobbin on the post,it has a slot which lines up with a metal spring on the winder post and makes an audible SNAP. Also you need to have the post with bobbin in place firmly snapped to the right for it to wind properly.Also check how you have the thread coming to the bobbin,follow the diagrams precisely.If it still doesn't work well, go buy a bobbin winder they're much easier anyway! Good Luck!

Access from top, and you can replace the unit with a new one....needs to be ordered through a Janome Dealer

BRAND new Janome 1420qdc. New needle, doesn’t need oil. Will NOT wind a bobbin. Used almost an entire spook of thread doing this. At my wits end. HELP!

Take it to a Janome dealer for repair.

Your sewing machine needs to be taken into an authorized dealer for service.

We fixed the problem by taking of the top of the machine and tightening the screw right next to the bobbin winder.

Thanks!

This happened on my Janome 10000...it had to be repaired in a shop.

Memory Craft has a bobbin winder on top of the machine.  It works beautifully, but wind it on slowly for better sewing function.

Under the top cover, on the right hand side where the bobbin winder is, there is a small switch which is activated when the bobbin is being wound. You will need to remove the cover and reposition the switch (it's located towards the front of the machine) to make it work properly.
