I also have a wireless intercom in my sewing room and that also interfers with it when on.
Solution for me is to not use the foot pedal - only when winding my bobbin and then remove the foot pedal from the machine and use my stop/start button.
Perhaps we should bombard Janome with an email at the sametime complaining about their foot pedals and ask why we are all having this problem. Some computer chip problem or????????? which is common to their machines.
Now wait a minute....you can't use your foot control when other things are in use? And you accept that? How much did you pay for this machine......is that like can't turn on the radio in the car because the defroster or windshield wipers are on......back to dealership! No charge for fixing that lemon!
