Hello all.....my 99K that I posted the message about is absolutely clean, and all parts are there, and the wiring is intact. I know nothing about electrical issues and must admit that the subject somewhat scares me. My fiancé thinks I should simply take it to a sewing machine repair place and have them fix it. I've seen replacement motors on EBAY. What are the chances that I'll get a good one there? Would you take it somewhere to be repaired, or do the replacement arts?
