    Default HELP! got E1 Error on my horizon

    and I dont have any idea why. I was sewing, went to the kitchen and at the time I came back I had this E1 Error on the display................contact the dealer says the manual. Buuuuaaaahhhhhhhhh - he sits in Great Britain!?!?

    I cleaned everything and still got the E1. Anyone out there who had the same problem??
    Cry, cry, cry...........

    This doesn't fix the problem but explains it:

    Is there a dealer anywhere in Switzerland?

    Thanks but I have been to all these sites before I cried out for help here. I still got my Bernina but I do not understand the problem with the Horizon. All in all I havent been sewing on it more than 40 - 50 hours, most probably even less.

    is it the horizon 7700. in my book it says that it due to problems in the control circuit. have you
    rethreaded and taken bobbin out and put back in. shut it off and left it for a while then pluged it
    back in. i havent had that problem yet.

    Hi......I know this may cost you....but if you have access to skype...you could use skype and it would be a lot cheaper....but try phoning Janome Customer Services in the UK.
    I have a 6600 and 9500 sewing and Embroidery and I could not get the 9500 to work properly. I have to say the person at customer services was brilliant and went through everything whilst I was on the phone next to my machine. She told me how to correct the error and it has been brilliant perfectly every since.

    Tel 0161 666 6011
    from outside the UK +44 161 666 6011

    I have the Horizon 7700 and my book says E1 Error is a malfunction in the circuit control....nothing you can repair yourself! I suggest you email Janome for help.

    When I got that error on my 6600 it was a bad motherboard. Sometimes it can be a fuse.
