Singer gives out a list of approved service locations. I have called 12 of them and they're all out of business!

Mine is out more than it is in! It went in for repair when first purchased because the cord was pinched in the casing and shorting out.My son has repaired the switch and steam handle. It is not working again so I plan to take it back to the shop in Duncanville, Texas that repairs presses. Good luck!

If you look on the internet under the yellowpages you will find the phone number. Just becareful you will get the Plano location. Just ask them for the number at the other location. They charged me 79.99 to open it up and replace some sort of fuse that had blown. I am right there with you. Without mine I am lost as well. Love it and they cost alot to replace.

If it is completly dead, no lights or anything working, you most likely have a blown TCO (thermal cut off). This is a safety device that blows when the temperature gets too hot. To check it you will need an ohmmeter to check it for continuity, or you can jump it out for testing purpose only. Do not leave it jumped out. The TCO is located under the plastic cover at the top of the base of the thermostat. It is covered with a piece of plastic tubing and kept in place with a metal clip attached to the thermostat. To remove the plastic cover remove the two screws under the arm of the press, the cap to the water bottle, and the knob for the mist adjustment, And the cover should come off. Ater the cover is off. remove the small piece of card board next to the thermostat. Locate the clip at the top of the thermostat and pull out the TCO. TCOs come in different temperatures. This one is rated at 116C. You can purchase one from Singer Sewing Center in Chandler, Arizona. Phone number is (480)220-7092, or you may be able to get one from your local electronic parts store. Keep in mind that a blown TCO is usually caused by a thermostat not working properly, so if it continues to blow, you will also have to replace the thermostat. If replacing the thermostat be careful not to break the stem holding the thermostat, it could be rather brittle from the heat. Hope this solves the problem, and good luck. Report Spam or Abuse
