How can I replace lamp? - Elna Quilter's Dream 6003Q

To access the light bulb, use the button-hole foot to lift up the insert on the arm cover. Remove the cover. Hold the edge guide slightly tilted and push it into the opening in the head of the sewing machine. Press down on the lamp housing to hold it still. Push up on the bulb and turn it counter-clockwise. Once the bulb is loose, pull it down and out of the lamp housing. To replace the bulb, continue to hold the lamp housing. Push the new bulb into the housing and rotate it clockwise. Release the lamp housing and then use the button-hole foot to replace the cover.

The best bet is the owner's manual. Most lamps either skrew in or twist about half a turn and pop out. Computerized machine bulbs sometimes have to be serviced by a technician. You can probably take the machine to a repair shop and have them replace the lamp for you.

Or it could be the incorrect bulb for the machine or if purchased from a secondary market, ie China, etc. I've purchased a replacement bulb from eBay and even though it was guaranteed to work in the machine, there is a lip on the bulb that prevents it from being inserted completely into the machine. Might be best to purchase an authentic replacement bulb from a dealer.

if there is power to the switch and lamp holder then replace the bulb.

I'm not specifically familiar with the 830 model, but all the other Berninas I've dealt with are very similar.

First, disconnect the power cord from the wall socket - safety first!

The housing for the lamp is in the hinged piece at the left (needle) end. It's hinged at the back (two hinges, one above the other like a door) and it's simply a matter of placing the palm of the left hand over the lamp switch with the thumb on the front above the needle and the tips of the fingers at the back of the machine, then opening the housing by twisting it away from the body of the machine from the front. It's held closed with a spring clip, so a little pressure may be required.

Once opened, the lamp and its holder are easily accessible. Remember the lamp is probably a bayonet fitting, so a little pressure to push the bulb into the contact springs and a slight twist in the same direction as you would turn a screw to undo it, and the lamp should come out. Avoid too much pressure on the lamp, as the glass part can part company with the metal base. If it does break, getting the metal base out is a bit of an issue, but it can usually be achieved with a pair of long-nosed pliers. Be very careful not to break the lamp holder - they can become quite brittle.

Having obtained a suitable replacement lamp of the same fitting size and wattage (most are 15 W), fitting it is simply a matter of pushing the lamp base into the holder and twisting it to lock it in place, then closing the housing.

Try calling Joann Fabrics for replacement cover

I've been searching for two days for the bulb replacement in my mother's 9110 sewing machine...needs a 240mW led lamp which the manual says 'not user replaceable'. I called the 800 # for Euro-Pro and the recording referred me to 1-800-361-4639 for Euro-Pro sewing machines. The rep I spoke with knew immediately the lamp needed (must get a lot of calls for this). The total cost including shipping was $31.90 and is shipped from CA. She said it is 2-4 wk delivery, but could come in as little as 2 days. I just ordered it today, so hopefully I will receive it soon and it will be what I need...it looks simple enough to replace, so don't know why they say it isn't user replaceable.
