Many years ago when I had my Juki, my son went to Radio Shack and bought a dial controlled with wiring, with a small plastic case. He also picked up a cord that wired into the case, and the other end that would plug in to the machine where your foot pedal fits in now. The dial was red and is used as on and off, and also a speed adjuster. The cost was around $10.00. Is there someone that could help with that? I then put the case on the arm of the machine with rubber bands, close to the machine, so it wouldn't interfere with using the handles.
