Do i have a gear problem with my necchi lydia 3 sewing machine

I oiled the machine  and worked with it to get it to run but in looking under the black end cover it looked like there were  two worm gears one turned the vertical one did not.  Should it?  Interesting! We have the same problem with my Lydia 3. The shaft with the cams for zig-zag and decorative stitches doesn't turn. It appears that the worm gear is fine, but the gear at the top of the shaft holding the cams does not turn. Help!!

Sounds like a service call in the making..those worm gears are delicate and not that easy to work with..you like to take apart complex machinery, by chance?

Bought a necchi lydia 3. Does not run smoothly, seems to have hesitation. Cannot move stitch selector readily. Have no manual, so don't know where to oil.

These machines were prone to cracks in the bobbin case (which are exorbitantly expensive to replace) and sticky pattern camstack sliders. I would take it to a repair person familiar with the Lydia. I wouldn't spend much to repair it, as you could improve vastly with even an inexpensive machine from Sears. The new Necchi machines are Taiwan imports and are not related in any way to the old Italian Necchi machines.

Where can I purchase Necchi Lydia 3 foot control

Contact this person and see if she can help you

or

Or use their contact page

Then ask where you can get one.

The foot control you use should be readily available at any sewing machine parts supply source. There are models that range in USD from $35.00 to 69.00 for the replacement foot control.

I would look in the yellow pages under sewing machines and parts for a local replacement source not being concerned about brand name when it comes to a foot control other than like connections.

Thanks for using FixYa.
