I have a phobia about tossing something I can fix. However I do understand the appeal of a new item that works without needing fixing.

Perhaps my insistence on fixing things is a rebellion against our throw away society. I don't know.

That's why I am here tonight==Friend has 20 yr old Viking 980 Seems the tranformer in the foot petal with the cords is getting hot. She is 80 yrs and feels she won't be able to sew much longer so needs it fixed soon as
she is doing some charity work. I thought some on here are so knowledgeable you could give me names with
advise as what to do. Apparently machine was working fine before this. An electrician told her there was no
power getting to the machine. Please direct me to any help or parts companies as I am not used to Vikings.

Please reply here or personal message .
