Decorative Stitches Stopped Working on Sewing Machine?

I have a Singer, model 2662, that worked beautifully and suddenly stopped performing decorative stitches like zig zag. Is there anything I can try to repair it myself?

Oh, I think I'm going to cry! I had to leave my 2662 in the US when I remarried and relocated to Scotland - it was (and is still, sniffle) the best sewing machine I've ever had!

Ok, right - your answer...erm, no, there's nothing you can do at home to fix your machine. One of the silicone gears governing the decorative stitch functions has worn out or even broken, and needs to be replaced.

I've been in the UK since 2010 so am probably off give or take five or ten dollars, but having the machine fixed shouldn't cost you more than $100, and that should include a good going over to clean and oil the machine as well.

Considering that's a $350 (on sale!) machine, it's well worth having it fixed as opposed to replacing with a comparable, new model.

Look for a Singer Sewing Center, or a vacuum center adverting sewing machine repairs.
