Janome MC 4400 Computerized Sewing Machine - Page 8 Questions & Answers
So in Janome 6500 Im getting a TD init error message, what does this mean?
The TD init error indicates an initialization problem with the automatic thread tension motor. Either a wire connection between this motor and the control board is loose or damaged or the motor has failed. This is from the Janome Service document:

Since the MC6500 is a computer with a sewing machine, you may not want to repair this yourself. A sewing machine service technician is a better choice to look at the machine, if you do not have training with electrical repairs. I don't know if a Janome repair technician will have the thread tension motor for this sewing machine. However, none of the other sites for sewing machine parts that I checked have this part in stock.
I wish that I had better news for you.
