the machine needs to be serviced so you can find out about the unusual sounds

Turn off the power supply and open the needle plate.

Remove the bobbin and bobbin case.

Clean the shuttle and surrounding area from any lint or thread that may have accumulated during use.

If the problem continues, the machine will need to be serviced by a Brother dealer.

Sounds like the shuttle needs to be cleaned.

Turn off the power and open the needle plate.

Remove the bobbin and bobbin case.

Clean the area from lint and any thread that may be trapped.

Return the bobbin winding shaft on the top right of the machine to the Left Position. It may be stuck in the middle.
I had this same problem. After an hour or two of fiddling, this fixed my problem.

You might have thread caught in the take-up lever linkage and it has soaked up all the oil my recommendation would be take it to your local dealer

I had the same issue a few years back but with actual symptoms of malfunctioning. I had mine fixed under warranty. The service tech told me it was a faulty circuit board. Works perfect now. I think the warranty is only for the first year to cover labor and parts. Not sure how much it would be out-of-pocket. This happened within 3 months of a brand new purchase. Hope this answered your question.

Hello
Make sure the bobbying is lettinng out the string first and also make sure the dial on the left side of machine is on 6 .when you turn the maching around , looking at the back make sure switch in too your right. Also just unplug the maching could help, my wife just had the same problem...

i had that problem also...you have to make sure it is snapped all the way back are it will keep coming on.
