I don't use basting spray but I did figure out it was the Free Motion Foot....a metal bar on it was bent and that's what helps lift the foot up & down. Found this out at a repair shop... since it was already there I had them clean/oil/etc. Got the machine back yesterday (husband picked it up) and the foot pedal and power cord they gave him are not the ones I dropped off. They belong to someone else with the same or similar machine.
My fault for not marking them but I have never had any problems taking the machine anywhere - first time at this place though. I called them and they said they would try to find mine but they don't sound optimistic.
So, my question is.... would you be ok with this switch? My pedal and cord were in immaculate condition... super white pedal...not yellowed... no scuffs... no abrasions... and there was a red mark on the pedal cord indicating how far you can pull it out. Not so with the one I got back.
At this point I don't know what they can do about it. If someone else got my pedal & power cord with their machine they probably wouldn't notice or wouldn't tell since mine are in better condition.
The pedal and cord work fine.
Husband thinks I should just move on.... am I neurotic for want MY foot pedal and cord back?
