Just the other day I was bragging to someone on here that I have an 8 year old Kenmore that I LOVE! because I have had it 8 years never serviced it, heck never even oiled it nothing (think I cleaned out the bobbin area once. Everytime I plugged it in it sew like a charm..........................


:cry:
I was using it yesterday and its not working :( It is making lots of noises and when I get to the end of the fabric no matter what the thread breaks.
and ohh the noises coming out of that thing sounds like a cat in heat! The bobbin is jumping its just a MESS!

I think I jinxed my machine
:thumbdown:
I have cleaned out the bobbin area, oiled it in the only 3 points the manual has said to. It is still messing up.
I have downloaded the service manual for it and I am going to see about fixing it.

I can take apart a vintage machine and put it back together I hope I can for this

Wish me luck I am going in!!!

anyone ever have to play repair man on a newer machine?
any tips?
