Needle stuck in down position


Recommended Posts

I was taking some tacking stitches when the machine made a noise like it does at a thick seam. The needle went down but it won’t come up. Turned machine off and on... nothing, tried turning the fly wheel manually but it won’t budge. I was able to get the bobbin case out no problem. I can see the tip of the needle in the bobbin area. The machine doesn’t make any noise when I turn it on now. Can anyone help? I have a 2016 Lenni. Thanks so much!

You need to get the needle out.  Try turning the flywheel backwards and maybe loosening the needle screw and rotating backwards.  Once you get the needle out you will probably have to change the fuse.  It is in a little drawer where the cord enters the machine unless it was built for Canada.  The Canadian machines have a separate fuse for the motor.  

Let us know how you make out.
