Open the machine to change the bulb - Euro-Pro 9105 Computerized Sewing Machine

To access the light bulb, use the button-hole foot to lift up the insert on the arm cover. Remove the cover. Hold the edge guide slightly tilted and push it into the opening in the head of the sewing machine. Press down on the lamp housing to hold it still. Push up on the bulb and turn it counter-clockwise. Once the bulb is loose, pull it down and out of the lamp housing. To replace the bulb, continue to hold the lamp housing. Push the new bulb into the housing and rotate it clockwise. Release the lamp housing and then use the button-hole foot to replace the cover.

As you will have noticed, you cannot open the end of a Bernina 1030.

There are two light bulbs on this machine, visible on either side of the needle bar and presser foot shaft. Viewed from the rear of the machine, you can see the one on the right but the one on the left is beneath a transparent plastic cover that slides out easily (but does not come right out).


To remove either of the bulbs, which are a bayonet fit, open the accessories box attached to the rear of the machine and take out the screwdriver tool from the top row, on the left hand side by the bobbin storage. One end of the screwdriver is a screwdriver (!) and the other end has a plastic tube - this is designed to grip the bulb.


Place the plastic tube on the end of the bulb, push a little and rotate anti-clockwise about a quarter of a turn to release the bulb.

The bulbs are both 6 Volts, 4 Watts.

Theres usually at least one screw in side cover of most machines which has to be removed to access the bulb. My serger & sewing machine both do & ive owned several. Newer ones may be different but there has to be an access .hope this helps

on the left hand side of the machine, look for a plastic tab, gently pry it off & it should reveal a hidden screw, undue the screw being careful not to strip the thread & the face plate should come off so you can gain access to the bulb, after you change the bulb just reverse all the instructions to put everything back togeather

Hi
Do you have a manual?
You can download a free manual from the Brother site.
http://www.brother-usa.com/ModelDocuments/Consumer/Users%20Manual/UM_LS_1217_EN_186.PDF
Click on the maintenance section of the manual. The first part of this section shows how to change the light bulb.
Hope this helps!

You need to change the bulb.
Most light bulbs in almost all sewing machines are located inside the face plate on the left hand side of the machine.
The faceplate is usually hinged at the back and it opens a bit like a door. It should open fairly easily and close with a click.
Open the faceplate and unscrew the bulb, it should be in plain view.
Look to see if it a screw or bayonet type.
Replace it the same way you would an ordinary bulb.
You can get sewing machine bulbs on ebay but you'll need to know which type of fitting it has before you buy.
Hope this helps!

some machines it's called the lamp cover door --these machine have a hinge at the back, carefully pull the door toward the back of the machine & it should open to show the bulb
some machines call it the face plate--there is a hidden screw under a plastic plug, gently pry the plug with a screw driver & then take the screw out, & remove the plate & the bulb should be easy to replace,just put the plate back on after changing the bulb & replace the screw & plug
happy sewing
