A good place to see what machines are selling for is Ebay. That's where I sold a sewing machine and an embroidery machine.

It helps to know your product and machine embroidery lingo.

What are cassettes? Floppy disks? These make the machine borderline obsolete.

Memory cards are still around, but most EM now have USB connectivity or USB flash drives.

Satin thread? Embroidery machines use Rayon or Polyester embroidery thread.

Having had the machine recently serviced is also a plus.

Janome no longer supply this component, however they are available in Australia at this site .....just scroll down to find the LCD Backlight to suit the Janome MC 8000 and MC 5700 on this page...HERE
Instructions for installation are also sent in advance so you can decide whether you feel up to the task or would prefer it were done by a technician.
We can also advise your nearest Janome Tech if required, just ask.

We have about 30 electroluminescent backlights for the 8000 still available .These are not original Janome parts. You will need a Janome service person to install then for you as it requires taking apart alot of the machine to get to the display. We can provide instructions if this person is unsure how to fit. Once the display is out, the process is simple. They are AUD$60 each including shipping. Email at [email protected]

I have a memory craft 8000 that gets a message stating "Stepping Motor Error". What can I do to try to fix it?
