I have a PR1050x and I am currently experiencing these worst headaches with my machine local dealer repair for service . I took it in February 3 just got it back March 21 today March 24th I turn it on for the first time to run test stitched and get this message. Main motor encoder signal error. Clear it off once then it says needle position incorrect. Turn it off turn the knob in the back check the bobbin for thread etc, I find nothing. Turn the machine back on same error. Local dealer doesn’t open back up till Tuesday I am beyond frustrated and literally need to learn how to fix my own machine. This has been my first service since I purchased the machine 2020 but I didn’t really use the machine until 2021 spring. Watching your video gives me hope that I can do these repairs. Though I still do not know what this message means I still have hope they can fix it but hopefully it’s not another 2 months to do so.?It’s just not enough video showing how. I truly hate, which is a strong word being at the mercy for almost 2 months waiting for service. Lost business and struggling to keep motivated. Thank you so much for this video.
I have a pr670e embroidery machine and I agree I think so many things we can fix our selves but I am having a terrible time finding resources so I can teach my self how to repair some of it do you have any suggestions or how did you learn great video
Hi Alaine, I also just replaced my main motor from my PR650 but the belt looks very loose. We did a test embroidery and the belt almost slide off. We put back the old motor on to see if it was doing the same thing and it does. We did not have any problems with this belt before. Any idea what to do ?

I have the same machine and can’t get to work it. On the screen it says “ main motor lock”. What can I do
How did you know it was your motor I’m trouble shooting mine right now
Hi my bmp6 is starting a squealing noise on and off, could it be the motor going out?
It could just need oiled, but most likely its the DC motor.
