How about checking your bobbin winder lever, make sure that it is pushed all the way back to the left?

Is it the bobbin or the bobbin case that is banging around? If I don't seat my bobbin case properly, it rattles and eventually falls out. Your bobbin case may be damaged, in which case, the bobbin is not going to fit properly. I dropped and stepped on my bobbin case once and the machine had the same symptoms. Then there's the obvious answer, a wrong size bobbin got mixed up with your bobbins. I've had that happen when I've taken a class with others. We all share tools and sometimes the right ones don't get back to their proper owner.

check to see if the twin needle are damaged
check the bobbin & make sure the bobbin case is thread correctly
needle & thread may not be compatable
here's how to check
Cut 6-8 inch piece of thread of the spool you are going to use for your project
Take the needle you are going to use for the project
& insert the thread thru the eye of the needle
& lift one end of the thread to a 45 degree angle
& if the needle is the right size for the thread it will slide down the thread
But if the needle hangs on the thread you need one size larger needle for the thread

You have to leave a 3-5 inch tail after you thread your top thread machine and hold for the first few stitches.

I think that you have it inserted or threaded wrong, read your manual more closely. If, you don't have one go to brother-usa.com and download one for free.

it could be a problem with the motor, you might need to see a repairman

If, you do not have the manual, please go to Brother.com and download one for free. Also, to change your needle without a screwdriver, use a nickel or dime. Sometimes that works better than a screwdriver and won't strip your screw head.

First, check to ensure your needle is not bent. If its not bent then just adjust your metal plate at the bottom. Loosen the screws and shift the plate back, tighten the back screw first and see if the needle now passes the plate. If not make some more adjustments. Once the needle passes the plate properly, tighten the front screw. Hope that helps.

Move the needle how?

Ensure that the bobbin case is correctly aligned in its groove. That happened to me yesterday and when I opened the enclosure I realized the thread was getting caught on one of the guides because the bobbin case was not aligned properly.

3Find the position of the knots.

4Tighten the tension and "pull the knots up" if the knots appear on the bottom side of the sewn seam.

5Loosen the tension and "drop the knots down" if the knots are on the top surface.

6Sew a test on the fabric you will be using. Tensions often have to be adjusted when changing fabric types and weights.

7Continue adjusting the tension and inspecting the seam until your seam is balanced.

You should not have to adjust the bottom tension when using sewing thread.

There is a tiny screw on the side of the bobbin case - left/loose; right/tight.

Mark the screw head slot and edge of the bobbin case with nail polish or sharpie so you know where you started.

If you are having a stitching problem that appears to be loose bobbin thread, it may be that the machine was threaded with the presser foot down.

Always thread a sewing machine with the presser foot up.

When the presser foot is down when threading, the thread cannot enter the tension control and you get loose, loopy stitching.

The directions are on page 26 of the manual. Here's a link.

Make sure the thread comes off the bobbin in a counter-clockwise direction. This has happened to me before and I took the machine for repairs. :( Hopefully, that's all it is.

1. In the event that changing the needle didn't determine the issue, have a go at rethreading the machine, guaranteeing legitimate pressure, and cleaning the bobbin region for any build up or garbage. On the off chance that the issue continues to happen, consider counseling the machine manual or looking for proficient help.

Question edited for clarity. A DB2 is a car made by Aston Martin, but this appears to be a sewing machine. All question need 'make model (what it is)' as first 3 words please.
