Replace light - Singer 7466 Mechanical Sewing Machine

It may be whats called an LED light. You may have to confirm with a Singer Agent to get the correct one.

The manual will have instructions for replacing the light in your machine. If not, then some machines need to be serviced by a technician for light replacement--common with newer computerized machines.

The bulb can be replaced. Your Bernina dealer will have what you need. The owner's manual should have instructions on how to replace it.

If a new bulb does not work, then it is most likely something else, perhaps the wiring or a connection. You can probably have your machine serviced to get it fixed, or go purchase a light that you can place close to your machine to light the sewing area. There are lights available with attachment clips and a bendable neck that well let you get the light in the right spot. There are also strings of LED lights available on eBay that you can attach to the upper part of the throat to light the work area. I replaced my regular sewing machine bulb with an LED bulb and was surprised how much better it lights.

I don't know the circuit of this sewing machine but it gives me the impression the light and the board are in series with a fuse. If this is true the light will burn out and cause the screen to go black as well. If the fuse would go out the same thing would be true. Anyway, change the light first. If this doesn't work you will need to replace the fuse. If there are still problems it will need the mother board to be replaced. Tell me how this worked out.

NEwer machines do not have a light switch, the light bulb on your machine may need replacement.

I believe the newer machine lights need to be replaced by a technician. You can check on getting some of those LED light strips that can be added to the machine instead.

There is no button to turn on the light. When the machine is turned on, the lights come on. If they are not working it means that one of the bulbs needs replacing. If one bulb blows, neither light works. The bulbs are readily available from auto spare parts shops. See page 110 of your manual for instructions on how to replace the bulb.
