Needle up/down button doesn't work
Replacement button may still be available, it is really just a tiny push switch and can become faulty.

Mostly it happens when tensioner is to tight. Try letting off tension a little at the time.
Janome New Home mx3123 reverse button not working
1/28/13 - I have Janome Harmony 2049 that was initially sewing forward with no reverse and then after about 12 inches of sewing would ONLY sew in reverse. After spending an hour getting the plastic housing off...I was able to locate the shaft that made the reverse. It needed lubrication and after working it in and unjamming the part from the down position, the forward and reverse now work!Huh, right? Hope it continues to work well. It is a smooth running machine, otherwise. Good luck!
Does the new home 3123 need oiling ?
the user manual for the machine will show oil points and how often to do it. If you do not have a user manual go to google and type in new home 3123 and download the manuals from the site.
Tension adjustment is too loose
Make sure you are threading it correctly (with the foot in the up position) and check that there is no fuzz trapped between the tension discs. (use unwaxed dental floss)
