    Hey all,
    It finally works now, we took it all appat and I found a piece of foam stuck on a wire so took it off then I held down 2 of the buttons on the front (hoping that would reset it)I am not sure what happened but now it works again. Thanks everyone for all your help. I really appreciate it.
    Hugs to all! YAY!

Maybe it got tired of me using it for the 2 hours straight. lol! I don't have anything magnetic aroung my machine just metal which are my sewing scisors. I have looked on the Singer website and they don't even have my machine on it, nothing in the forums either. I will try calling the 800 number tonight. I have been so stressed out with this that I have been sick with a migraine ever since. :( Thanks everyone for all your wounderful replys.
    I am sure glad you got it running...it is sooooo frustrating to be stuck in the middle of a project and have machine problems. Glad you did not have to take it to the shop and have them keep it for 3 weeks!

    Great to know you fixed it with out spending money on it again. When my Janome9000 died I had to wait a week to get enough money up to buy a new machine, but just bought a cheap one as that was all I had. I did get $200 off as it was on sale. Yayy for you.
