One time when this happened to me, I even went to a different spool of thread, rethreaded the machine, put in a different bobbin and a new needle. It ended up in the shop and the tech discovered that my bobbin had cracked (Pfaff bought at JoAnn's, not at the dealers which is a no no evidently). With a different bobbin, everything worked fine. He said that sometimes these plastic ones can get a fine crack in them which sure surprised me. I bought 10 new bobbins from the dealer and haven't had the problem since.
