Machine: Brother CP7500 Issue began immediately after fabric jam. Symptoms: * Severe looping/birdnesting on underside at normal tension settings (around 4) * At max tension (9), stitching improves significantly but underside is still too loose * Replaced bobbin holder (black semicircle race cover) with no improvement * Tried multiple thread spools * Replaced needle * Re-threaded machine repeatedly * Upper tension mechanism appears to engage normally (large difference in thread resistance when presser foot lowered) * Machine forms consistent stitches, no major skipped stitches Concern: Possible upper tension assembly damage, check spring issue, or internal thread path damage after jam.

🪡 Machine Repair Summary: Borader 810D with YIXING Servo Motor • Problem began after a needle broke inside the machine. • Since then, the motor RPM number drifts on the display even when the pedal is untouched. • This causes sudden speed surges, leading to thread snapping at the needle. • The pedal position sensor (potentiometer) was tested — re-zeroing, disconnecting, and spring adjustments didn’t resolve the issue. • Disconnecting the sensor triggers ER-4 on the YIXING servo controller, so the machine requires it. • Pedal movement is stiff if the spring is removed, so full bypass is not an option.

My sewing machine won’t sew because I took it apart and put it back together wrong. My issue before was the bobbin thread was getting caught, I thought I needed to clean it so I took it apart and I think I put it back together wrong. Whole time it was just because I wasn’t threading it right.
