I get an E1 message when I begin to sew. The manual says the presser foot is not down, but it is. We tried cleaning, opened it up, everything is working normal except for that error. It won't sew at all. Any suggestions?
I had the same problem. It started after I took the cover off to fix something else. After I screwed the cover back on, I kept getting the E1 message even when the foot was already down. I took the cover off again, and I found that there is a metal tab at the top left of the front cover, that is pushed by a metal tab in the back that moves when you put the presser foot up or down. You can see this metal tab moving in the back if you put the foot up and down with the cover off. Just putting the foot down(I think) before putting the cover back on fixed it so one metal tab is on the correct side of the other metal tab.
YES!!! Thank you, thank you thank you! I had had the cover off tho replace the bobbin winder tire but it worked after that so I didn't know what had happened.
Oh my goodness, you are a genius! Phew. Was so worried I had broken it too, exact seem thing happened to me for exactly the same reason.
Thank goodness I found this!!! Thank you xxxx

I did the same thing tried to put back together with the foot up and down but it still shows Er1. What else can I try?
Thank you!! I found someone else who said to have the presser foot up and put it all back together... Problem didn't resolve. Tried it this way and it worked!!!
It worked! I thought I broke something when I opened up my machine. Thank you, thank you!

Never mind, I took it apart and cursed it's name until it worked again. The thing was on the wrong side of the other thing, causing it not to work. :)
