I'm new to QB but not new to quilting. I have had a TinLizzie18 for 2 1/2 years. At the end of my second year the electronic board in the control box went out. Parts are not available and a new electronic board for the control box had to be made. Today when quilting the machine up/down needle failed to work when beginning a new stitching area. In addition neither the stitch regulator or speed stitch modes would work. The wheel at the back of the machine is NOT stuck. Any suggestions?

Hello, and welcome to QB from western Nevada! I think I'd start by calling the factory for support. Should be easy to find a number online. Here's a place to start (note 888 number on very bottom of screen) http://tinlizzie18.com/resource-library/

Hi Marti, welcome from northern California!

Thanks to all for your encouraging words. And now for the end of the story -- took machine to dealer this morning. They were able to fix it on the spot. The fly-wheel had come loose inside the covering and was not touching the sensors it needs to touch to move the needle.
