Your check spring or check spring sensor need to be replaced, take it to a Husqvarna repair shop, there is nothing you can do yourself..

Is your thread old? I had some thread that I was trying to use up and my machine decided that it did not like it all of a sudden. Maybe, unplug and totally rethread with a fresh needle. Sometimes, the little buggers get particular. Hope it is something this simple. Good luck

SOURCE: Artista 180 - I keep

There are a number of possible reasons for this, but, assuming the thread hasn't actually broken (!), it may well be that the upper thread sensor flag has come off the check spring - this is something I see fairly regularly and is frequently the result of people pulling the upper thread 'backwards' out of the machine a bit too quickly, rather than cutting it off at the spool and drawing it through the machine in the correct direction. It's a bit fiddly and very difficult to explain how to check this, without taking all the covers off. However .... if you take the head cover off (single screw) and look carefully at the bottom of the metal takeup lever cover you will see a large slotted screw with a spring wound around it - this is the check spring. The end of the check spring pokes-out behind the takeup lever cover and the thread goes through a loop in its end when you thread the machine up. Thread the machine up as far as the takeup lever, take hold of both ends of the thread and gently raise it - you should see the check spring move upwards. Now, look very carefully at the part of the spring between the big coil around the screw and the loop where the thread passes-through ... there should be a black plastic part attached from the other side of the takeup mechanism (you cant get at this without taking the front cover off !). If it's not attached, you can very very carefully wiggle the spring and sensor flag back so that the spring sits in the slotted part of the sensor flag (either that or take it to your Bernina service agent !). If the sensor appears to be attached, it could also be the optical sensor which is attached to the front cover just above the reverse switch - sometimes this gets full of fluff or I have seen a couple with manufacturing faults where the sensor flag gets caught in the optical sensor circuit board ... whatever the case, this is really a job for the service agent.
Good Luck

SOURCE: I keep getting "check and rethread the upper thread" error message

Hi....I also kept getting the check and rethread upper thread message, I\'d sew about 15 stitches and it\'d stop. Here\'s what I did. On the left of the machine, in the back there is a screw....loosen that screw, take cover off, then lift straigt up and out on the cover that has the 3 on it in your threading seqence. Next, I started inspecting and cleaning the thread route from top to bottom. Lo and behold....I get to the place where you come down the front of the machine and turn to go back up and I spot a little slit in the plastic piece so, when I was threading the machine I guess I was pulling it to far to the left causing it to wear a little slit in that piece....so, I finished cutting it off with a utility knife, used an emery board to smooth it down, put the covers back on and it works GREAT!!!! Who would\'ve ever that it\'d be so easy and save me a bunch of money!!! I sure hope this helps someone.

Embroidery machine thread getting stuck!

The error message "Check and rethread the upper thread" on your Brother PE550D embroidery machine can be caused by a few different things. Here are some things you can try to fix the problem:
  1. Make sure that the thread is loaded correctly and the thread guides are properly adjusted. Refer to the manual or the threading diagram on the machine for specific instructions.
  2. Check the tension of the upper thread. The tension should be adjusted according to the type and weight of the fabric being used.
  3. Check the bobbin case and make sure it is loaded correctly and the tension is adjusted properly.
  4. Clean the bobbin case and the race hook, and make sure there is no lint or debris that could be causing the thread to bunch up.
  5. Check the needle, make sure it is the correct size and type for the thread and fabric you're using, and that it is inserted correctly and tightened securely.
  6. Inspect the silver arm on the left and make sure it is not bent or damaged and that it moves freely.
  7. Make sure that the presser foot is in the correct position and that the presser foot lever is in the proper position.
  8. If the above steps do not resolve the issue, it may be best to take the machine to a professional technician or contact the manufacturer for further assistance or service.
It is important to note that, the above steps are general troubleshooting steps, and the actual problem can be caused by different things, so it is best to consult a service manual for your specific Brother PE550D embroidery machine or contact the manufacturer for more detailed and accurate information.

Error message

Try changing your needle, make sure there is no thread caught in the looper, and maybe use different thread brand. My machine does not like Coats and Clark brand it eats it up every time try sulky or another higher end brand thread if your not already using it.

Error Code: Check and rethread the upper thread

Yes. It is a sensor on the take up spring. If you miss threading the take up spring you get this error. If take up spring is bent or broken you get this error or if sensor is damaged this error occurs.
