I can only imagine that the button you pushed is not your tension but your foot pressure button...when you say "on top" I have two old Kenmores so I think you are talking about the foot pressure button... its called a push bar..... it has a lock release collar.... when the bar is pushed down to increase the pressure, the collar locks the bar into place... when the collar is pushed it releases the bar and the pressure is decreased.

so if you pressed the collar, the bar "clunked" up..there should be numbers on the bar...press the bar back down....I have mine set between 3 and 4... I could email you pictures if you like...pm me!
