look at this, see if you get the red screen read that then click the X so that goes away.
The site page will show up. then on the left side click the 15ch ,machine.
I have been in this site 10x's over but never red the first red page / block . I think you'll find this very informative.
I just got a Philippines made singer, I called singer they have no records of it. It's s/n starts with a LA. but it's not not there 15ch
what I get out of the red page is singer is saying these are bogus / fake, not a real singer
