Hey Ash, first take a deep breath, both in and out.

Turn off at machine and wall plug. Take every cord out, and then replug them.Rethread the machine, and change the bobbin. Sometimes my Singer stops because the (plastic)bobbin has a small nick in it, another time I didn't plug the foot pedal in properly, and yet another it overheated on an extremely hot day, after about 20 mins of sewing.
Hope this help.

No computer parts.
Yes, this machine is computerized...unplug overnight or for a couple of hours....sometimes this will reset the machine. If you had used it for a couple of hours of sewing, it may have started to overheat and the machine will shut down so that it doesn't do damage.
I left it unpluged all night. Still not working. :(

Did you check the outlet to see if it is working?
