My Singer Brilliance is skipping stitches. I have already changed the needle, bought new thread, and tried to clean everything, what else can I do? I am using Gütermann thread.

@Chrissa Efremidis This is bobbin winding mode. Move bobbin pin to left to resume sewing.

The problem is that the bobbin thread is not being picked up and cannot be lifted up. The bobbin and co. are cleaned and reassembled - nothing. Thread tension checked. Everything is okay. Needle replaced as well. It simply does not want to sew. Until now, I never had any problems. Help.

@Ingrid seems your machine timing might be off somehow. Make sure new needle is installed high enough.

@A. Roth the symbol is a bobbin. Did you wind one before sewing? Check bobbin pin like suggested above.

@corinna dres Look up the bobbin winding symbol in your manual. Does it look identical to the JC you mentioned? I suspect so. Possibly your bobbin pin was accidentally moved to the right purring the machine in winding mode. Move the pin left until it clicks. Now you're in sewing mode. Yes I realize the bobbin symbol seems like an error message however the machine often beeps when in error. If no beeping check pin first. Hope that helps.

Good evening. My Singer Brilliance 6180 keeps breaking needles. I noticed that the needle bar is more shifted towards the left, causing the needle to hit the plate and break. What should I adjust? Thank you very much Giampaola Pinna

I have set zigzag 5-3 at default on the Singer Brilliance 6180 sewing machine, but it only sews a straight stitch - with different other settings nothing else happens only a straight stitch - is there any additional feed setting that I need to solve?
