My Brother CE1008 will load a bobbin but the machine does nothing but give me error E1 when I try to sew. What could be the problem?

This error code is often triggered when you try to sew with the Presser Foot it the UP position. Lower the foot, turn the machine off and on again. If this doesn't fix the issue the problem is probably the trigger lever inside the machine. The lever controls the cut-out switch for the presser foot. It is a common fault on Brother machines. The lever 'sticks' and doesn't turn off the safety switch. You can repair this yourself BUT you have to open up the body of the sewing machine to get to it. I've attached a video that explains it in more detail. *Note* If you do try to do this yourself make sure the machine is NOT plugged in. Also make sure you have remove All the screws before you separate the two halves of the plastic body shell. If you miss one you'll snap bits of plastic off possibly making the machine unsafe to use.

Brother XR-65T Sewing Machine. What is the proper bobbin holder. Too many choices!

Question edited for proper make and model as written. This one https://www.ebay.com/itm/143903188186 This is normally the best site, but their search isn't working to Boolean standards of being able to refine search queries using "quotes". https://www.sewingmachinesplus.com/searchresults.php?search_field=%22Brother+XR-65T%22++%22bobbin+holder%22 but you could phone them.

How can I fix a failure to make a stitch. Brother

Does the motor run? If it does, it is the threading and normally at the bobbin end, with the bobbin carrier not correctly installed. If the motor doesn't run, it is electrical or with a complicated embroidery machine 'electronic'. You would need a multimeter to start checking things. 'make model (what is is)' as the first 3 words in every question please.

My brother MFC J6730DW is printing with a fat pink line only when i scan or copy something, not when I print from my pc.

Clean the scanner element. Possible debris on the led bar.

My brother exedra e-40 #db2-b737-413

  1. In the event that changing the needle didn't determine the issue, have a go at rethreading the machine, guaranteeing legitimate pressure, and cleaning the bobbin region for any build up or garbage. On the off chance that the issue continues to happen, consider counseling the machine manual or looking for proficient help.

Brother FS155 Sewing Machine. E6 error?

It is covered here in videos and articles. Try running it with no thread in it at all. If it runs, it is a problem with threading. Speed issues are caused by the foot controller rather than the machine UNLESS, it is an issue with the motor itself. https://www.google.com/search?q=Brother+FS155+Sewing+Machine.+E6+error ..

My brother se 400 shut down in the middle of sewing an embroidery pattern. How can I start over where it left off?

I don't think you can because it has no 'memory' function as to how many stitches it has performed or where it is within the pattern.
