Thank you so much!! I took my wife's machine apart 3 times to fix an E-1 error and couldn't find anything wrong! I was about to give up when I saw your video! Thanks for being so generous with your time and talent!
this is such a sweet comment to read 🥺 i’ve been seeing so many spouses comment that they either helped or needed help, and it’ll be so nice when i can eventually ask someone for help like that. i’m a 24 year old single woman and don’t mind doing everything on my own, but to have someone who’s willing to do the irritating take-apart process 3 times…that’s so sweet 🥺 pls stay forever happy
You are awesome! My daughter is just starting out and bought this machine dirt cheap at a yard sale (they were selling because of the error). She was hoping we could fix it and she would have a great starter machine of her own. I was able to fix it for her with your videos help. Thank you!!!
Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou from Australia🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺 I pulled my machine apart to clean it and I couldn’t get it to work. 4 times of putting back together and still not working. Found your video and it was brilliant. My brother is working again after the 5th attempt. Yay. You are awesome. I live in a valley and nowhere near a shop and this video actually saved me financially and let me get the machine working again . 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻😃👌👌👌💙💙💙
Thank you! I looked at their website and found their advice useless. I was freaking out to know I had to open the machine and there's no help on how to do that! I fixed it though. I'm so excited right now! This just made my day! I still don't understand what was wrong but I'm sewing again!
I am a happy sewer today. Thank you. I have had my Brother CE-5000PRW Project Runaway for over 4 years and love it. It stopped working before the pandemic and today I decided to give it a "last chance" fix before trying to get a new one. I gave it a deep cleaning, and when checking to see if it worked, I got the E1 error. Found your video and well, I am laughing about it. Thank you for your video. I am sharing it on my Facebook page.
My hubby and I have been wrestling with my machine all night and as soon as he saw your video his face lit up! He said "I know exactly what he's telling about! I can fix it now!" THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH!!! God bless you!
Thank you very much for this video. I had taken my machine apart to clean it and oil parts. Once back together I kept getting E1 error. I knew the problem had to be inside the machine. I removed the case and inspected my lift bar, which seemed to be working without sticking. It must’ve been the way that I reassembled the case because all is working perfectly now. Thank you again!
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! I had to replace my bobbin winder and it was a Job... After finishing, I received the E-1 Error. Your Video truly was divine. After using the WD-40 and moving it back and forth, I tried it... YES! It works. I left everything the same, shut it off, closed it up... Started it up... Job COMPLETE! THANKS Again!!!
Wow. You saved me. I panicked what happened to my machine after I removed them to clean and oil. Boom. It didn’t work. Luckily I landed here. I removed the screws and fixed it within a minute . Thanks a ton to you
Thank you for the help! I pulled apart my sewing machine to clean it, put it back together and it came up with this error. I knew it was something I could probably fix myself but I didn't know how. Thanks for the help, you just saved me $169 for going to get it fixed 😅😅
❤thank you so much! I changed presser foot, stitch, tension! Had one pant leg hemmed and couldn't figure out what the problem was! Your explanation and instructions are AWESOME!
thank you very much. I am Japanese. I came across this video when I was in trouble because I didn't know how to fix it. And I was able to fix it safely. I am very happy.
When I separated front a.nd back, the threader guide (3 parts) fell out. I can't seem to see where they fit back in. drive.google.com/file/d/17B3nz2t9xaKhGE6BXFpodTYrrMPkJSC_/view?usp=drivesdkh
Thank you so much! I just got this machine from a thrift shop and they just test it to see if it turns on (since they didn’t have a pedal). So happy to get it working
Thank you soooo much. I was so upset when I broke my sewing machine and then I found your video. Then yippee I fixed it because of you. You ROCK!!! Xox
Oh I wish you were in Florida! I have two Brothers, one manual and one a Project Runway, that have been disasters. Very frustrating, because I had volunteered to do some production sewing of toys for charity for Christmas, and I was the only one who failed to submit anything. Same problem with both machines so it has to be me, upper thread breaking constantly. I've re-threaded and made adjustments until I'm ready to get my 1956 White Rotary serviced and put these two Brothers in a closet. You are amazing with your knowledge and ability to explain things, I do wish you were local! Best wishes, and hope to see more of these videos from you. You really know machines.
Thank you! It resolved my issue. Recommend to take pictures and mark all the screws locations before taking it apart. The part (as shown on the video) is supposed to be loose when flip the (up and down) lever up. Wiggling it could not make it loose in my case. There is a spring at the center of the part, sprayed WD-40 there then it worked.
Thanks so much! I cleaned my XR1355, but when I put it back together the error code E1 came up. I watched your video, and even though it is not the same, I understood the process you explained enough to find the trigger and fix my machine. :)
Oo ooh ,,,,thats amazing I have the same problem and o couldn't find someone to repair my machine this type in Mauritania,I bought mine in France ,,,Thank you so much for this video ......coz tdy I will try to fix mix o hop it will work .....otherwise I will need ur help .thankx a lot
Gracias, gracias, gracias espero que sepa español, se lo agradezco muchísimo, no encontraba cuál era problema no había ningún video que lo explicará en español pero aunque no entiendo mucho inglés puse varias veces el vídeo para entenderlo y funcionó, y todo el problema fue porque mi niño de 3 años empezó a meterle botones chiquititos y piezas de LEGO por la ranura de la máquina.
thank you so much for sharing your time and talent. This video has saved my machine. A friend let me 'borrow' it becuase she couldn't get it to work. Thanks again.
ya know, i start my apparel designs major in the fall and i was panicking thinking i had to get my machine fixed after i took it apart to clean it tonight. turns out, i just had a long day and forgot to put the pressure foot down😂 thank you!
Thank you! You just saved me like 100 bucks that I would have had to pay someone else to spray some lube and wiggle the thing with a screwdriver! I am subscribing to your channel for sure and I already hit the 👍🏻
Very informational. Could you tell me, by any chance, do you know how to get the cover off of the Brother SQ9185? It's stuck on the top left part of the machine. Thank you.
I've been having issues with two brother machines!! My eyes are failing and I can't seem to keep a pattern straight! The latest issue was the E-1 error!! I thought I'd lose my mind as I was about to sew up my granddaughter's Bible cover. I swear I was about to throw this SQ 9285 on the floor..had I not clicked into this video I would have lol. thank you!! I know I need an overhaul of both machines but this saved me! My other issue on the other Brother SE625 embroidery machine..the feed dogs won't lift. I took it apart and it still won't work. Do you have a quick fix? I can still embroider but cannot sew on it. I love it for sewing..it is a workhorse! Thanks again!!
I disassembled and looked for this lever to be stuck. It was moving fine. I thought maybe it was something else so I tinkered with it a bit. I didn't find anything wrong. Then reassembled it and the E1 error didn't return. Possibly the lever was stuck but was released while I was disassembling the machine. I can't be sure. Not my machine is working fine again. My brother sewing machine is a different model but the mechanism looked the same on the inside. Mine is a Quilting/ Monogramming model in case you are curious.
Great Video.... One question though. When you put the case back together does the tension arm coming off the case go on the left side or right side of that piece that moves side to side??
i'm also wondering about this....to me since it has a hook, it should go to the right side...but every time I connect it, i get the E1 error. and when I let it go to the left side, tension doesnt work
I was having both an E1 error and the fabric not moving forward error. The tab seemed ok on mine too, but when I was looking I noticed that the feed dog wasn't moving up/down enough and that is why the fabric wouldn't move. Maybe you have a similar combination of problems. I oiled everything that linked to the feed dog circular lever thingy and something got loose and I don't have either problem any more. Keep trying!
Ugh! I took my machine apart and followed your video instructions. It worked then the same error message came up! HELP! We don’t have a repair shop in our city!!
How do you fix the Tension of this Machine? Can you show me how please and thank you. i have one of these machine and I don't have the money to repair it.

This was very helpful, now please can you tell me why my tension knob doesn’t change anything no matter what i do?
Nice one, sorted the issue out in seconds!

Great Video.... One question though. When you put the case back together does the tension arm coming off the case go on the left side or right side of that piece that moves side to side??
i'm also wondering about this....to me since it has a hook, it should go to the right side...but every time I connect it, i get the E1 error. and when I let it go to the left side, tension doesnt work
Thank you for this video! You just saved me with this! I have to sew my husbands name and ranks on his uniform today and this was almost a disaster!
Thank you so much for your help! I was able to fix my problem in minutes with this video :)
I have the E1 error on my machine. I took the cover off and the tab you show that moves left to right is working properly. What else could it be?
make sure you check carefully, is the only reason why this happens.
I was having both an E1 error and the fabric not moving forward error. The tab seemed ok on mine too, but when I was looking I noticed that the feed dog wasn't moving up/down enough and that is why the fabric wouldn't move. Maybe you have a similar combination of problems. I oiled everything that linked to the feed dog circular lever thingy and something got loose and I don't have either problem any more. Keep trying!
Can you demonstrate how to replace the bobbin winder for a Brother CE1100PRW. The plastic post broke off, I have a replacement part.
