How to remove error 3 juki sv -500

I wasnt able to locate the sv-500 but juki but from the others I read its a head position detect failure. Disconnection of synchronizer connector (no signal from head position synchronizer) Check the synchronizer connector (CN33) So likely a common cause is a connector for the cable that comes from head to control board.

How to add oil in JUKI SC-220. Most spilled when moving machine.

Hi there, since I know nothing about this sewing machine I can only say what I found which is this http://www.szwalnicze.com/cat_ju_ins/juki-SC-20_SC-120.pdf if you go to page 31 it is the only reference made to oil and a very vague one at that. But I did post it anyway because it may help you find the oil storage. Good luck https://www.6ya.com/mr.mike

I have a Juki HZL-F and the tread is not picking up the bobbin, I have tried picking it up manuallly but the bobbin is just not moving

Hi, If when you remove the needle plate, you may find that the hook is not rotating around the black bobbin case, then the probable cause is a broken gear. Juki does not make the gear available as a replacement part. The machine must be sent to the Juki service center and there seems to only one left in the US. Contact Juki and if you have the original box to ship it in they may pay part of the shipping cost. I have had to do this, I hope you find a simpler solution.

Juki HZL-K65.Everything works when I plug it in but the red light is on the sew button preventing it from sewing.

I believe you can press the button, even when red, and it will advance one stitch? yes/no... I'm not sure. You were able to bring bobbin thread to top?

Needle not catching the bottom thread juki DDL5530

Make sure needle is not bent and fully inserted. Top thread is not binding (over tension) or snagging on the spool. This has a transparent bobbin cover? If yes manually advance machine with the hand wheel, keep an eye on the bobbin case, do you see the bobbin case (hook) rotate? As the needle starts upward, there should be a loop of top thread form. The bobbin case hook captures this loop and wraps it around the bobbin case.

My Juki TL2010Q does not break needles except when I sew any kind of thickness then the needle bends toward the left and of course breaks. Is it the tension when using on thickness?

Be sure that your needle size is not too small for the thread you are using , thicker thread, thicker needle or a top stitching needle

Juki Sewing machine DDL-555. After 4-5 hours use feed not moving

Sounds like as the machine builds up friction from extended use, some vital part is lacking lubrication and is seizing up. A good service person will remove ALL of the covers and thoroughly air clean and oil every moving part. Sometimes these dry points are hard to find and patience is required.

You can get a sewing machine oiler with a long applicator and put a drop of oil on anything that moves, but over oiling can be messy.

Juki TL 2010 Q stops running during sewing then will restart after cooling down. What could be causing this?

Sounds like too much drag on the motor. Probably motor shafts need oiling.

How do I thread a Juki serger mo-804. Five threads on machine. I need to know how to thread needle number 5

Are you sure it's a 5 thread? I looked at the threading diagram on the 804 and it appeared to be a 4 thread. It looked like an overlock with a safety stitch in the center. The 5 thread looked like the number was an 814

I have a juki 560 - wheel is moving manually, but gets hard to move at one point and then goes fine after that. The footfeed is not moving the material through. what could be the problem?

  • Remove the foot and plate. Take your thread out of the needle and see if you can run the machine and it turns freely, if so:
  • It sounds like you might have your feed dogs in crooked or your plate may be bent. Have you taken them out lately? Or bought a new plate that might not be the right one to match with the feed dogs that are in your machine?
  • Take your plate off and examine it to make sure it is flat and that the metal between the feed dogs aren't bent. If they are bent, straighten them with your screw driver. If the plate isn't flat, lay it on a flat surface that you won't hurt (cutting board, workbench, garage floor :) ) and use a hammer to beat it flat (usually a couple hits).
  • Lay the plate in place without putting the screws back in and wind the hand wheel forward and see if your machine is still hanging up. If not, put the screws back in the plate, put your foot back on and see if it works!

Juki 5550-6 bottom stitching has little loops every few inches What to do?

  • Frances, Check to make sure that you don't have a bad needle. If there is a slight burr on the point of the needle, it will cause this. Or if your needle isn't in straight.
  • If you have broken a needle, you may have a groove on the inside of the needle hole in your throat plate. You can take your plate off and buy emery string to run back and forth to smooth that out or you can buy a new plate. (look under your plate and there should be a number engraved on your plate to guide you into purchasing the right plate.
  • Check your bobbin to see if its wound evenly and that there aren't any grooves in the edges of your bobbin (if there is, throw it away).
  • Lean your machine back and run your finger along the outer edge of the shuttle to see if there is a rough edge that might be catching the thread as it revolves around. If there is, buy a piece of fine emery paper at a hardware store and buff it smooth
  • Are you using smooth thread and a big enough needle? If your needle eye is too small for the thread or the needle is too small to punch a big enough hole in the material for the thread to pass through easily, it will sometimes cause skips like this.
  • As a last thought, try a different foot. If your foot doesn't hold the material tight to the feed dogs while you are sewing, the material will 'follow' the needle up and down and cause skips.
  • Good Luck!

I have a juki ddl 8700h when reverse its skipping how am i going to fix it

Generally the machine is making poor stitches going forward before it makes skipped stitches going backwards. Start out by correcting any tension imbalance first. Then:
  • I usually start with the simplest thing first. Put in a new needle and make sure the eye is straight so that the scarf of the needle is meeting the hook properly.
  • If it still skips, I look for places that there might me a flaw in my thread path. 1.) Is the thread coming off the cone properly? I follow the thread all the way to the needle to make sure its right. 2.) Did you break a needle lately? If so, it might have made a groove in the needle plate at the hole which you can sand out. Then, lean your machine back and run your finger around the edge of your hook. If there is a rough spot, use a piece of emery paper to smooth it out. 3.) Take your bobbin out and check to make sure that there aren't rough edges to the bobbin(throw it away if there are), then put a bobbin back in and see if the thread pulls out of the bobbin holder smoothly.
  • Then, I look at the underneath of the foot I am using to see if it isn't holding the material to the feed dogs firmly. If the foot is allowing the material to move up and down slightly with the needle, you will have 'flagging' and that causes skipped stitches.I generally try a couple different feet and see if it stops the problem.
  • Lastly, be sure that your needle and your thread are compatible with the material you are sewing. If you are using a needle that is too small to make a proper sized hole in the material for the size of the thread, you might have enough stress on the stitches to cause the skipped stitches.
  • Good Luck!
