Primitive1 801 Report post Posted August 18 Occasionally when I am quilting along, my millie suddenly races for a second or two making tiny stitches. It scares me to death as I am usually using a ruler and have my hands down near the hopping foot. I tried blowing out the carbon in the area around the motor under the hood, I've tried using a humidifier incase it is static electricity build up, but don't know what else I can do... Has anyone else had this issue and what did you do to fix it? It has me nervous while I am quilting.... Quote http://www.flickr.com/photos/sewmanyquiltssewlittletime/ Proud Millie Owner!

Cagey 766 Report post Posted August 19 Quote I tried blowing out the carbon in the area around the motor under the hood Does this indicate that you pulled out the brushes, and then blew out the residual dust? If not, I would suggest doing this. https://www.apqs.com/motor-brush-maintenance-video/ APQS tech support is also a good idea if it does not correct the issue. Best of luck.

MarianR 2 Report post Posted September 16 I have been having a similar issue to yours however is seems to happen at around the same place on the table. It only happens when Quilt Path is engaged. I have checked for any kind of interference from objects under or around the machine. When I release the belts I don't have the problem. Thanks, Marian R.
