Machine sews on its own

When I release the sewing pedal it just keeps on sewing quite madly! If I tap down on the pedal or switch it off it will stop.

SOURCE: foot pedal dead, machine keeps sewing!

There is no suppressor in the foot control of a 425. Only the control unit, which may need to be replaced. If the machine accelerates to full speed, it may have a problem with the "stop right" board which tells the machine whether to stop with the needle up.
You could have several problems, so go see a qualified Husqvarna repairman. You may contact Husqvarna customer service to locate the best one in your area.

SOURCE: Machine sews only in reverse

Be sure you are in the correct stitch pattern...if you are on a buttonhole stitch or a stretch stitch it normal for the machine to sew backwards. Be sure your length is to the right of 0 and not in a strtch stitch model or buttonhole mode.

Undo the foot control and take out the small square suppressor and throw it away, you don't need it anymore.

Slow sewing regardless of speed setting

I'm thinking that the problem is in the foot control
take the foot control to a sewing machine repair shop and have it checked out
you say it appears aftermarket--probably is to replace a faulty OEM unit

Juki sewing machine keeps sewing after releasing foot pedal

Your machine could be out of time. When you turn on does it stop or stitch a couple switches. Belt could be worn out as well. How old is it? Thank you very much. Please leave some feedback or more information so I may help you.

How do i fix a n elna su that will not stop after releasing the foot pedal

I'm guessing this is an Elna air electronic SU? If yes, then the problem is with the diagram inside the right side of the machine where your air control foot pedal tube feeds in. I havent' done this repair myself, I took mine to my favourite sewing machine technician. But if you are technically able, try joining the Yahoo Group called Elna Heirlooms, and then go through the threads there, there's been discussion on this repair before.

My janome feedomatic compact sewing machine gone's wild. As soon as i plugged it on,itautomatically runs at full blast! Can anyone tell me what's wrong? I cant see any auto buttons on

unplug the foot controller to eliminate it as the problem ,however if the machine does not run like mad as soon as you switch it on
without the foot pedal then you have isolated the problem to the foot pedal,it could be stuck on full speed .

My foot pedal won't stop the machine from running when I release it.

I just fixed a Bernina foot pedal with this problem. There is a metal piece that presses down on a small switch when the pedal is released. The switch wasn't being pressed down hard enough to completely disconnect the power. As a result the machine kept slowly sewing when the pedal was released. I bent the metal piece down slightly with needle nose pliers so the switch would be fully pressed when the pedal is released. The hardest part was opening the foot pedal because there were no visible screws. I used a flathead screwdriver to pry the base off the foot pedal at the pivot points.

Sewing machine stops sews a minute slows down or stops then starts up

I suggest having the machine checked at a sewing machine shop
to see if there is something wrong with the motor, or the foot pedal
but first check to make sure the power cord & foot pedal are
connected correctly
