I found the bobbin case. It was in the box with the accessories.
You should check the electrical connections before considering changing it to a treadle operated machine. That can be a little strenuous on the legs. Sometimes the wires have come undone and/or the wire(s) can be broken. The motors themselves are pretty simple electrical motors and usually don't go bad. Also check all junctions where there can be clogs of some sort like gummy grease or thread etc. And don't force the motor to run while it may be clogged it can burn out like any other electrical motor. Good luck.
