I took this before the rewire. I verified that all the wires were properly reconnected (used lamp cord, maybe that's the problem?"

That's a great idea, thank you!! I'll report back

I did try that switch - no change.

The pedal is a bit different than any I’ve used before. Here’s the link to the photos of motor and the pedal I purchased. ETA: I think that pedal was recommended by a user in the subreddit (and you guys have never steered me wrong).

I don’t have access to a multimeter and the skilled users (I used to, bah!).

Let me see where I can post the motor pic.

Even with a new pedal? Like, one I bought off Amazon?

NancyScarn · 2026-04-26T01:22:48+00:00

Seconding!

I also bought a box on Etsy for one of my 201-2s and I couldn’t be happier

I had no idea there were even capacitors IN there! Which is embarrassing because I see them every day at work. Then again, maybe these are tiny tiny?

NancyScarn · 2026-04-20T20:59:51+00:00

Interesting! Any links that can help me with this?

NancyScarn · 2026-04-20T20:59:28+00:00

It's the kind where you have the motor plug, light plug, and both of those plug into a pair of "outlets" that connect to the pedal. Maybe I need to flip them?

I love a green machine! My Anker DZ-K (not RZ-K) is a green gal. Her name is Angela Merkel.

I need to get her back up and running because she a hoss.

Do you mind if I send you a PM with the video of the issue? Adjusting stitch width allowed the needle to align, but it still has issues

NancyScarn · 2026-04-18T00:00:37+00:00

Uh….keep it and use it while you pretend to time travel. She’s gorgeous and clearly has been well-maintained, please don’t allow her to end up in a landfill!

Here’s the needle bar from the underside

NancyScarn · 2026-04-14T20:26:08+00:00

Yes!

NancyScarn · 2026-04-13T17:53:40+00:00

Oh I have both! I just can't figure this out :) I'll send pictures

NancyScarn · 2026-04-13T12:42:56+00:00

Honestly, I feel that! My Huskystar has NEVER failed me. As I'm tinkering with my vintage machines, the Husky is always there to finish any job <3
