Default Singer 403a needle wont move.

So, I removed the bobbin, checked for jams, made sure the clutch was tight and I still cant get the machine to sew. The needle is in the up position about 80%. I am not sure what happened when the machine quit working as the wife was using it last.

I am at a loss as to what is jammed/broken.

I have a youtube video to try and describe what is happening but its in the process of uploading. This machine came in a cabinet with a bunch of feet and other addons along with original manual.

I hate to chuck it, but I don't want to spend $200-$300 to fix it.

I really just need a decent machine like a 15-91 or the like that will go through fairly thick material straight stitch only.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
