I just purchased a new Singer 8763 Curvy this past weekend. Considering I haven't touched a sewing machine in about 13 years I'd say I'm quite the beginner. After reading the instructions on proper threading, watching videos, and also Googling, I can't get this thing to stitch! I've rethreaded the machine a good 10 times. Checked the bobbin, switched it around, etc. It just wont stitch! It wont catch the bobbin thread (but I read in the manual you can begin sewing WITHOUT it catching) and it will also beep 4 times after a few seconds. I'm not sure what the problem is and I'm getting quite frustrated. Any ideas?
I'm sure you've done this, but I'll just throw this out there. Did you pull the bobbin thread through the groove that slants on the left side of the needle plate starting from the upper left corner of the bobbin cover?
Testimonial: "Yes, I have. Originally I had cut the excess but after trying everything I just left it. When I threaded the machine the first time it picked up the bobbin thread but still would not stitch :("
