The cord is cut, I don't know if it is supposed to be a knee or foot pedal I don't see either one. there is a motor inside the case that has some sort of handle on it, thinking that might be the knee pedal but can't quite figure out how to get it to come down. I will putz with it some more and see what I can figure out. Thanks for the help.
Miriam, I looked at your Singer post, I wish I was that brave but No Hubby to help with electrical, he passed away 2 years ago and I KNOW NOTHING about FIXING ANYTHING, so I think I will need to take "Nellie" to the fix it shop. Hoping to find someone who will take good care of her and explain to me how things work with her. I have an old Singer, and 2 old Kenmores
but this one has parts I have no idea what they are.
