I bought an electronic White I used daily for just over a year when it just quit. I guess heavy use juts was not its thing. I now use an old vintage Kenmore for quilting. Great thing is it can usually be repaired pretty easily and these oldies are built to last. I got the SM and cabinet for $60 and I love it. I also have a computerized Janome that I use for my more delicate work.

You did not say if this is a computerized machine, but if it is try unplugging it for 10 or 15 minutes and then plug it in and see if it works. I had this happen on my Janome 6600 once and I tried everything and then decided to unplug it and went back later and plugged it in and it has been purring every since.

Oh sorry no it is not a computerized machine its one from Walmarts we have use for about 3 years now, It was a good little machine while it lasted

Sorry Dora, I hate not having a machine. I hope you can work it out soon and get back to sewing.

i will be hand sewing , i had to do without a sewing machine so i can hand sew pretty good thank you and hugs Dora

What a bummer, I hated when I had to get another identical machine when after a year the motor burned up. Good thing I was still working and the next night I bought another on line with free shippping. It took 3 months and $380.00 to get the motor and have it installed. I do love these machines and everything about them. Some people on this board have found an old machine for not much money at all. If you have a Goodwill or Salvation Army stores close by, you may want to check them often.
Good luck. Happy hand sewing until you get another or get that one repaired.

Sorry about your sewing machine. I would keep and eye out at the goodwills and thrift shops and even the pawn shops for a good one, that want cost you a arm and a leg..But sewing by hand is good also, and they look so much more prettier I think.
