And your wondering if it's worth keeping and fixing????????????
Ummmm, yes it is.
OK, the stitches are probably because the stitch control knob on the pillar is locked in place. Turn the knob to release the stitch control lock and adjust it.
It also wouldn't hurt to oil the snot out of it. Tri-Flow works wonders
........ I think I've heard that before.
As for the motor running only a few minutes at a time, there's more to it than just the wires. The foot controller is a resistance unit. If something's wrong in it the resistance can build and that will shut off the machine. Check it. Check the motor internally.
Is it worth keeping ............. If you don't want it, send it to me I'll adopt it.
