Bernina Activa 130 won't turn on but has power and makes faint clicking sound

Based on the symptoms you have described, it's possible that there may be an issue with the power switch, the motor, or the circuit board of your Bernina Activa 130 sewing machine.
Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:

Check the power cord and connections: Ensure that the power cord is securely plugged into the machine and the outlet. Check for any frayed or damaged wires in the power cord or connections, as this could cause the machine to not turn on.
Check the power switch: Inspect the power switch for any damage or debris that may be preventing it from functioning correctly. You can also try pressing and holding the power switch for a few seconds to see if it turns on the machine.
Check the motor: If the motor is not functioning correctly, it may prevent the machine from turning on. Try turning the handwheel manually to see if it turns smoothly. If it doesn't, the motor may be the issue.
Check the circuit board: A faulty circuit board can also cause the machine to not turn on. If you're comfortable with electronics, you can try inspecting the circuit board for any visible damage or loose connections. However, if you're not familiar with electronics, it's best to take the machine to a qualified technician for repair.

If none of the above steps resolve the issue, it's best to take your sewing machine to a qualified technician or a Bernina service center for further diagnosis and repair.

Juki DDL-5550 N7 I power it on, it will not sew. There is no machine power sound.

Check ALL of your machine plug connections.
Also, try plugging some other appliance into the outlet that your machine is plugged into.The trouble could be the outlet, not your machine.

My 9000, on regular sewing, is My 9000, on regular sewing, is "jumping" ahead as I sew....kinda like the foot pedal is stuck. Anyone every have this and if so, is it something I can fix or do I need t

it's definitely not suppose to be jumping ahead.
have you checked the foot your using on the machine to make sure it's on correctly?
you might also check the feed dogs to see if there in the up position, in the needle plate.
if nothing I suggests works then I agree to take it to a janome dealer & let them sew on it & see what it does with them

I have a Kenmore sewing machine that started running backwards. When I hit the reverse, nothing different happens. The stitches looks fine, but it is feeding the material to the front of the machine.

sounds like a broken or loose spring behind your lever.

I live overseas, and brought this sewing machine

its not transformer or machine problem at all.all the connections are also proper.its the power issue the required power to the machine is not getting from the electric outlet.just call the local electrician and check out the power supply voltage from the electric outlet.and power required to the machine which will be listed on the machine.if more power is required he will connect the over power IC and get the machine work.if less power is required he will connect the RESISTOR and lower the power to the machine and make it work.

The feed dog is not pulling the fabric and I cannot get it to come up

Hi, possible causes: see if there is an up and down movement of the feed dog during a cycle. If it moves check that the throat plate is not the feed cover plate used where fabric feed is not needed. If there is no movement, check that the setting is not for embroidering where the feed dog is neutralized for free motion stitching. Otherwise open the buttom cover and observe its movement under various sewing settings.
