It sounds like your machine is set to wind the bobbin right now, so the drive is disengaged. That would explain why the bobbin winder pin is the only part moving. Check your manual for how to reset the machine when you are finished winding the bobbin.

Most machines have a way to disengage the drive for the needle while filling the bobbin. Then once the bobbin is filled, you re-engage the drive. Some machines have a separate, smaller hand-wheel that turns and clicks into place. Some machines automatically reengage the drive once the bobbin pin snaps into place away from the drive belt.

I hope this helps!

You can turn the screw on the top of bobbin winder tad to right. Also, you may want to try a metal Universal bobbin, but try first option I gave first. Jimmy

Husqvarna viking 300 sewing machine bobbin winder will not stop spinning. machine will not sew when foot pedal depressed. bobbin winder just keeps spinning.

The bobbin winder moves a plate next to the handwheel that disengages the needle from moving If you can't push it back to the left you will have to take the machine apart to fix it.

My Memorycraft 10000 is having difficulty spinning bobbins. When I load it up to spin, then start the process, the needle goes up and down, and the machine beeps and stops.

Hm, difficult to say. Perhaps the needle stop function for bobbin winding is not functioning properly. Perhaps taking it for service would be a good idea.

The other thing you can do is look for a stand-alone bobbin winder. They cost around $30-35 at the fabric stores (ie JoAnn's) or can be found online. Just verify first that it will take the bobbins for your machine. I have one and it's great because it saves wear n tear on my machine, plus I don't have to unthread my machine to wind the bobbin.

How can I fix my bobbin re-winder?

Consult your owner's manual. There is usually a knob or switch to de-activate the needle mechanism and activate the bobbin winder.

If the winder absolutely does not work, you can buy a stand-alone bobbin winder (one brand is called Sidewinder) at the local fabric store or even on the internet for ~$25.

Needle is not moving

Of course I have to guess here--not seeing the machine, but it appears that your motor is working fine. That would leave two possibilities, I think. The first is a defective foot pedal. The second is, when you push the bobbin winder, it engages a clutch that diverts power from the needle shaft to the winder. It is possible that the clutch is stuck. To find out, disengage the bobbin winder and press the foot pedal, and see if the bobbin winder spindle is still spinning.

The bobbin may be stripped, or the bobbin winder might be stripped; try it with a different bobbin, to rule out the bobbin being the issue; if that doesn't work, look closely at the bobbin winder to see if it has been damaged. You may be able to adjust it's shape with a pliers

Cant get machine out of neutral after threading the bobbin

there should be a way to disengage the bobbin winder. I had a machine that had a switch in the center of the handwheel and even though it would be in the off position I still had to turn the handwheel till it clicked.
