SOURCE: My Husqvarna Huskylock will not catch the 3 thread
First thing to try is a new needle and make sure it is inserted into the needle holder all the way! There is a small opening in the needle clamp. Look closely at it when you're inserting the needle and you will see the top of the needle through that hole as it reaches it's top position. Also check the needle plate, are there 2 small needle like pins in the plate? If one of them has broken out of the plate, you'll have a hard time getting it to sew correctly. If it is missing one, you need to buy a new plate. If all of that is correct and it still doesn't sew properly (and you're sure it's threaded right), a trip to your service tech will be needed.

This will also occur if the "needles" and "loopers" lock up as though threads are tangled and binding the machine. If needles and loopers move freely when manually turning the handwheel counter clockwise, you probably need to take it to an authorized husqvarna viking dealer for service.
You can locate a dealer near you by visiting the husqvarna viking website and clicking on the Dealer link on the left-hand side of the page - http://www.husqvarnaviking.com
Good luck.
SOURCE: trouble with my Huskylock 680D overlocker Tensions
You need to re-thread the serger.
Refer to the manual or open the front of the serger to see if the threading diagram is there.
With most sergers, you begin with raising the presser foot, then set the tensions to zero.
Begin the threading with the upper looper (curved looper), then the lower looper and the needles last.
Pull the thread under the presser foot and to the left side of the serger.
Set the tensions back to normal 4 - 5 usually.
Lower the presser foot and hold onto the threas tails as you stitch a chain. If the chain of the four threads is ok, you are ready to serge fabric.

The shaft is getting stiff and motor can't turn it. Try taking the bottom off and cleaning the fuzz out. Use alittle oil on all of the joints.

Thank you for your reply. I already checked all the electrical items you suggested before I posted my question for help. I'm thinking it may possibly be the mother board. Everything else seems to point in that direction.
