Just noticed this on my Janome Horizon. I purchased the machine last September (I do love it!!!), and can't remember ever seeing this before. It doesn't make sense to me, because my feed dogs are down and my stitch length is set to zero.
Might well be that it's a perfectly normal thing and I'm only noticing this because I'm no longer so stressed out by the FMQ thing... But thought I'd check with this knowledgeable board, in case it's an indication of some problem that needs fixing.
Thanks in advance! You are always such a great community to come to for advice.

Weeell... I think I'm doing the disengaging right. When you finish using it, you push the "hook" back up so it clicks into its holder. I've fiddled with it some more and I'm pretty sure it's doing what the manual says.
What's more worrying is that this morning as I was winding bobbins, the needle was running at full speed while the bobbin wound! Yikes. Definitely something weird going on. I guess I will be checking with my dealer tomorrow, sigh...
