Feed dog is stuck
I have the same problem...this is a work around, not a fix.
You need a small flat-head screwdriver.
1. Remove the clear bobbin cover.
2. Make sure the feed dog switch is in the DOWN position.
3. Slide the screwdriver under the feeddogs from inside the bobbin area & lift the feed dogs.
4. While holding the feed dogs in the up position, return the feed dog knob to the up position.
You have to do this every time you put the feed dogs down...bummer, but I can find no broken part or adjustment that corrects this. If it's inside the machine body, I don't mess with it... I did take off the bottom plate in the feed dog area..one screw holds it.... there is nothing there to indicate a problem.

Singer 9960 automatic thread cutter not working
I'm looking for a solution to why the thread cutter isn't working. It just pulls the thread into a knot and jams the bobbin case. I was hoping for an answer here but the answer had nothing to do with the question!
Singer Quantum XL1 jammed
I went to do a stitch
The Singer Quantum XL1 has a needle bar positioning spring. It's actually a J shaped bar with a rubber stopper at one end and a hole for the 1 screw on the other end.When it breaks the rubber partly off or falls off completely the machine shows signs.The thread can jam or, The needle bar extends too far left or right.Also your needle may stop going up and down. It works for regular stitches if you pull the needle bar back down with your hand. For a while anyway.Sometimes regular stitches work. But you can't sew the large designs like bear, bunny, lamb, duck. Until you replace it. There is only 1 screw, needle bar tops at the rubber stopper of the J. Or the metal J shape end looks like a c if rubber is missing. So the rubber slips onSee image.I've only found the entire needle bar positioning spring. It's like I said is not a spring at all it's a metal piece with a rubber gasket on one endGood luckAlso you may need to use a light stableizer. If the material has gotten jammed before. look at your needle plate where the needle goes in. Has it been damaged? is there a gap, hole, slice, small piece missing? Where needle tinged the plate?A dent or cut that makes it wider? You'll keep getting "caught"Try Use stabilizer or get new needle plate.The good news it's about $10 for the needle bar stabilizing spring.
