You covered both issues, but the filming of your bottom hand when all the action was going on at the top of the machine with your upper hand was absolutely crazy.

    Had an issue with my FS101, was getting bird nests underneath each sewing start, for about 1 to 2cm birdnesting. Studied KZread videos for hours and tried everything, nothing solved the nesting. New needles, new and different thread, new threading, cleaning, nothing solved the birdnesting at the beginning of each sewing. Saw nothing wrong on the bobbins or the bobbin casing. Ordered by coincidence recently 2 spare bobbin cases. Gave it a try and changed the bobbin case and voila, no more bird nests at all. Even so I could not tell what was wrong on the "old" bobbin case, the replacement of the bobbin case was the solution to the problem. Just in case, as this is not mentioned as possible troubleshoot solution ;)

I can stitch about 15 stitches, then the spring sticks and I get an error message to check and rethread upper thread. Upper thread is fine, it's a problem with this spring that is supposed to go up and down with EVERY stitch, but doesn't. Thanks!

I keep getting a majorly grinding noise, have been checking for lose threads in the bobbin area, etc, but no luck. I’m borrowing the machine from our local library and it’s a Brother CS-6000i. I’m afraid that I am somehow damaging the machine.

  • @allanbruce9473
    @allanbruce94734 ай бұрын

    I followed the troubleshooting FAQ on Brother and watched this vid - which basically summarizes those FAQs. I am a good engineer and this Brother CS7000i has NEVER stitched anything without leaving a nasty bunched up mess on the underside. The top looks fine. However, even when I have a long stitch. It will start with a little bunch or hang. Then, I can continue for a couple of inches where it looks great and then randomly the last two inches are a rats nest. Fortunately, it is mostly when I am repairing my old work jeans. That material is 9 ounce twill and I am backing up the rips and holes with one of those (pathetic) iron patches that never iron on. So, I am doing only straight stiches with the correct default foot. Medium duty pure cotton twill thread on the needle and bobbin sides. Not one thing other than all default settings. Tension set between 1 and 2. Hand start and hand tack beginning and end (using the wheel, not the foot pedal). You can conact me here with any bright ideas!

As I’m ready to push the pedal to sew, the needle doesn’t move but I hear the machine or the machine’s gears inside trying to work or move. So I try to push and let go and push the pedal and then maybe after 10 times of doing this, it starts to sew but very slow then go fast after many stitches. Then when I stop after minutes, it goes back to the same problem again. Please let me know how to fix this? Thank you!

You said it might be tension and I put it up a bit higher and it came out perfect on the back!! If you’re using a walking door defiantly put it up around 4-5

No amount of tension adjusting and re-threading will solve the issue......

    She does stitches with little then a lot of tension but them doesn't SHOW you what they look like! My problem: I sewed fine 2 days ago. I didn't change the thread or anything. Now I just went to use it & the first couple of stitched made noise. Well when I manually & slowly moved the needle down (it is in the left position) it is banging into something below. You can see at that time that the needle is 'bending' a bit to the right. If it were to go straight down it surely would break. WHAT is the issue? Also I haven't been able to use the auto threader. To get the needle into the hook, I must push the needle by hand to the left to get in. But I still can't use it because the threader bar does not go low enough to line up behind the eye of the needle. Can this be adjusted somehow?
