Troubleshooting
Bulb does not light up
Ensure the sewing machine is plugged in and switched on. Verify that the bulb is correctly and securely seated in the bayonet socket by unplugging the machine, removing the bulb, and reinserting it, ensuring it locks into place. Check if the sewing machine's light switch is in the 'on' position.
Flickering light
This could indicate a loose connection. Unplug the machine, ensure the bulb is firmly locked into the socket. If flickering persists, the issue might be with the sewing machine's internal wiring or power supply, and professional servicing may be required.
Bulb broken during installation
If the bulb breaks, carefully remove the damaged parts with pliers (while wearing protective gloves and eyewear), ensuring no glass fragments remain in the socket. Unplug the machine before attempting removal. Replace with a new, compatible bulb.
