You can find lots of information on fixing the wiring on these potted motors, and that light too. Invest in some soldering tools and heat shrink tubing.
I'm currently rewiring the motor, lamp and presser foot as we speak. I'm surprised the guy who sold it to me didn't destroy the motor or electrocute himself with the way he slapped together this wiring. No terminals at the end of any of them. Loose wires covered in just electric tape not even heat shrink. Smh. But a fun Saturday project.

The plug is actually broken but I found a replacement part for it. I'm debating on adding a ground connection just incase there's a power surge or anything. My building is old and the electric is weird here.

Also the wiring in the pics are after I started taking things apart.
