DoryJM Posted December 11, 2010 Report Share Posted December 11, 2010 My LED lights are flickering...well, not exactly flickering. They go from dim to bright with no apparent rhyme or reason. Any ideas of what to check to make it stop. Its really making me crazier than usual:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witha'K'quilting Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 Maybe I should be happy to not have the led lights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

witha'K'quilting Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 Glad I could offer some assistance. Flickering lights are not good. Neither is getting burnt from the flouro lights. So my sympathy to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barbm Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 Dory, is anything else on your machine "flickering"? The front stitch length display, the lights on top of the machine head, etc..... If not, I'm thinking there's a bad connection somewhere in the light panel wiring - but they never let me close to that back at the factory (I was lusting after an LED panel for my older Millie, so they watched me like a hawk!) so I can't help you find the problem spot. Let us know what you find out - hopefully you won't go completely crazy before someone can help you out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lindasewsit Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 Dory, my LED light is flickering too....Just started about 2 quilts ago.... It is starting to drive me nuts! I'm dizzy enough without the lights making me dance disco! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neher-in-law5 Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 Are the connections for just those lights vibrating loose? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawnCavanaugh Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 Ladies, Try blowing compresses air through the LED lights from the rear near the light switch. Send me an email if you still have trouble:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustSewSimple Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 I think those lights were just flirting with you. Wink, wink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoryJM Posted December 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2010 Yeah, well I wish they'd quit!! Dawn, I tried blowing it out and it seemed to work...for awhile. Not anymore though. After a couple hours, they're still dimming, although it doesn't seem to be as regular. Think I'll try blowing it out again and see what happens. Any other ideas?
