Can I get a copy of the instruction manual for your Janome Harmony 2049? I got my mom's machine when she passed away in Dec but no manual. Thank you!

I have a Singer 160. Was sewing fine then suddenly all I get after three stitches is a C6 error telling me the upper thread is broken but it isn't. I've rethreaded multiple times both upper/lower.

Remove the thread completely from the machine. ALWAYS RAISE the presser foot when threading the upper thread. If the error continues, there may be a piece of thread stuck somewhere in the thread pathway.

Why is my thread nesting on my Babylock BMP8?

Try these suggestions
1. Change the needle--use a needle that's for the fabric being sewed
2. Rethread the machine--top --make sure to use every thread guide
3. try a different bobbin--make sure bobbin is inserted correctly into the bobbin case, & make sure the bobbin is turned the correct way in the bobbin case
4. make sure the thread has not come off the thread take up lever
5. Clean under the needle plate & in the bobbin area for lint or threads

Is there a code to fix a singer sewingmachine when it flashes 88

I just found your question, so I'll try to help you,
you said you just had the machine serviced and it's still
showing the error 88, is this error why you took the machine in to
be serviced for?
if it is then I suggest taking the machine back to the repair shop
and tell them it wasn't fixed correctly.
I've had other people say that they've took their machine in to be
fixed and then brought the machine home and it still had the same
problem so that means that they didn't fix the machine ..
have you tried changing the needle--needle that is correct for the
fabric being sewed
try rethreading the machine top and bobbin
also try using a different bobbin
make sure the top thread has not come off the thread take up lever
make sure the top thread is not wound around the spool pin
make sure the bobbin is turned the correct way
do you have a manual for the machine?

Is your thread old? I had some thread that I was trying to use up and my machine decided that it did not like it all of a sudden. Maybe, unplug and totally rethread with a fresh needle. Sometimes, the little buggers get particular. Hope it is something this simple. Good luck

Big wad of thread on back of material, makes a god awful noise. It is new and we are new to it.

You have to read your manual carefully, then rethread your machine because it is not threaded right. If, you need extra help call 1-877-276-8437 until 5:45pm est

The tension on the top thread suddenly is too tight, could it be

Hi. That's always a possibility. Whenever you have problems like this, it's always a good idea to rethread the machine--including rethreading the bobbin. Another possibility is that lint could have gotten caught up in the tension disks. If you take a scrap of soft cloth and sorta floss it between the disks, anything caught up in there should come out. Brush out all the lint from the bobbin area, too, while you're at it.
Sometimes thread can slip out of the threading guides while you're sewing.
Hope this helps!

I was sewing along fine and then all of a sudden my thread started "birdnesting" I have rethreaded the machine as well as the bobbin. It works great on a practice run but as soon as I go back to my project...

Yes, VERY frustrating! When this has happened to me it has always turned out to be a tiny bit of thread caught in the bobbin assembly. I've rethreaded and rethreaded but could only solve the problem by taking the bobbin assembly apart and finding and removing the caught thread. I use a bright flashlight to help find the caught threads.

Good luck and I sure hope this helps!

Sewing machine stopped making the stich

Unthread the needles, rethread the loopers properly, then rethread the needles. Make sure that all four threads are pulled securely into the tensions and retry.

The loopers must always be threaded before the needles or it will not chain.
