I'm big on calling manufacturer's help 800 numbers. Have you tried that?
I finally gave up on my automatic threaders--I have them on 2 machines and both are out of adjustment and I can't figure out what to do. Once I was introduced to Superior's TopStitch needles, I quit trying to use the threader. These top stitch needles have a longer eye and thus are easier to thread. I use them for everything I do. But back to the threaders--I bought a new one and hadn't had it two weeks before I messed it up. that was when I decided they didn't work for me.
