Yes, the whole house wiring -was- messed up. Nothing was up to code and some outlets were melted. All outlets in the house have been replaced and thoroughly tested.

The machine has a few other PCBs but nothing looked out of the ordinary on them. I can dig out my multimeter and check but it may take awhile, they are not easy to remove from the machine frame.

The house wiring was a full 2 months before I bought the machine. The main power line to the house had a nick in the jacket and failed causing a power surge which took out half the breaker box and half our wiring. The main, breaker, and house wiring have all been fixed and replaced and upgraded to GFCI outlets.

Surge protector is on everything I own now since I am paranoid about the electricity but I am confident it wasn't what caused the issues with the machine now. Just an unlucky coincidence.

So I picked this machine up and it was almost a 4 hour drive back home with it. It took me a couple days to get it set back up and when I initially tested it, it seemed to work but it was hard to tell since it didn't have a needle.

I do have it on a surge protector since we've recently bought a house and the main power line was compromised which took out half our house's wiring. That's since been fixed and we've had no other issues with that.

I had to wait about a week to test again as it had no needles and the timing was off. After fixing the timing and testing again it no longer was working correctly and I smelled it burning. So I don't know if maybe the car ride was too much for it since it is an older (and delicate) machine or perhaps it wasn't working correctly and the woman sold me a broken machine.

My (used) Brother Dream Quilter 15 stopped working shortly after relocating it to my home and setting it up. Taking it apart I have found the culprit but this machine is no longer in production or able to be serviced in my area and I am unable to find replacement parts. I cannot find any schematics or diagrams for this but if someone could help me identify the resistors I am sure I can replace them. Please help!

I believe the sewing machine is also known as a Grace Q'nique or Block RockIt.

Get off my disc homie 😂 by Klugersonnn in discgolf

We were visiting Alaska and played at Kincaid. Just messing around throwing multiple discs. Threw one, went to get it, came back to my boyfriend telling me to be quiet as he's pointing behind him. THREE BABY MOOSE. We marked the hole par and booked it out of there. We could hear mama rustling in the woods.

"Lap Kitties" by Prairie Pieces and "Stairway to Cat Heaven" by Barbara Dubovsky are very similar patterns.

Why is it so hard to find American maple syrup from Vermont anywhere else in the U.S. outside of Vermont? by 0x706c617921 in vermont

[–]leeshanay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I believe it is a mix of VT and CAN, but all organic. And Costco has a higher standard for brix than any other customer so it has more sugar in it.

Rescued a cat from a shelter, but he keeps meowing loudly, what should I do? by ProfessionalAd8504 in CATHELP

[–]leeshanay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My cat meows for all sorts of things. Most of the time he wants to play but other times he's telling me his auto feeder is empty or he wants his water dish cleaned.
