Yes, my DH checked those specifically when we go it. I remember because the 101 isn't the easiest Singer to oil/lube/check brushes. DH hasn't had time to look at it yet, but his first guess was the box that connects the knee pedal wiring the machine. Can't remember what he called the box. Repairs will have to wait until his job lets up a little. Good thing I have backups!
