LinneaMarie Posted June 3, 2023 Report Share Posted June 3, 2023 Watched the video; awesome btw. But it was hard to get my head close enough to see where I marked the needle! So I thought I had it; put it all back together and now it's hard to pick up the bobbin thread and sill only sew side to side. I missed something!! Thanks for your help Linnea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SueD Posted June 6, 2023 Report Share Posted June 6, 2023 Are you stitching in manual or regulated mode? If it's only happening in SR mode, check that you have your cables plugged in correctly for all of the encoders. It's possible to get them switched and then the encoders wouldn't be signaling the machine to make stitches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LinneaMarie Posted June 7, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2023 I got it! Yay! But it is louder I think, than before I timed it. I ordered a new hook assembly just in case. I wasn't stitching I was doing needle up/down. And I never unplugged any encoders. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimerickson Posted June 8, 2023 Report Share Posted June 8, 2023 I'd guess that your re-timing wasn't completely successful. Go ahead and re-time it again. Pay particular attention to the position of the needle eye when it meets the hook. I assume you just changed the hook position, and the "re-timing" didn't involve a change in needle bar height. If you changed the needle bar height that's another issue. I think the noise you hear is probably the needle hitting the hook. Again a symptom of improper timing. Good luck. Jim PS: If there is no in/out play in the hook when you pull and push on the small center shaft, the hook you have is still probably good.
