No Zig Zag! Bernina 830 and 930 - Common Problem - Simple Fix - No Tools Required

If your Bernina 830 or 930 no longer ziz zags, there could be a simple fix to a common problem where the changeover lever mechanism is jamming.
This is a very common cause of these models not zig zaging properly or not at all. There can be other causes of no zig zag but I see this a lot as the main cause.
It's simply just a matter of applying sewing machine oil to the correct place and exercising the changeover lever.
It's also an indication that your machine may need a service as it's likely other parts need cleaning and lubricating.

LOVE this video!! I have two 830s, a 930 and a 730. The 730 can't stitch the decorative stitches and my service man said it can't be fixed. It does zig zag though. Not sure I get his reason why it can't be fixed - "because a lot of these machine's decorative stitches were never used from the beginning." I am going to try and unstick it myself - thanks for this very informative video!!

Superb, thank you. I pulled an old Bernina 530 record out of the local dump and I could not work out why the pattern stitches wasn’t working, everything else worked perfectly, watched your video and poked that bit and it’s now working perfectly. Thank you!

Thanks so much for putting this video up! I've had an 830 for 15 years that has been collecting dust because of this issue! It had been so long since I've sewn that I even forgot how to access the insides from the top as the lid is stuck and it didn't feel right forcing it. I have a bottle of sewing machine oil on order now!

Thank you so much for this video! I have my husband's Grandmother's machine and have been wanting to know what to do to fix this issue. It is a record also. I believe it is the 503. It is olive green and cream. I can't wait to try this fix! Maybe I can actually use it then.

Thanks! my machine is a Lervia so it's quite different, but this film gave me a clue to look for some sort of seesaw thing that was stuck, and after a while i found a bit that was stuck, i oiled it and got the zigzag working again

Thank you so much for this. That was exactly why my machine would not zig zag, even after I just got it back from service.

thank you! i love my little 830. It's a work horse. i have new berninas too, but i go back to the 830 for mending and repairs on heavier fabrics

@lyndabuchholz1216 Год назад

Thanks!!! I now have 2 of these machines but mine is the record. I asked my son to help me change belts and he loves this machine. It is so easy to work on. He works on machines his wife has and they are way more difficult. I will have to give him your channel maybe you have videos of working on those machines.

@AnneHunter-y7g 9 месяцев назад

Thank you, thank you! I've just bought a Bernina 830 for my daughter and fixed it with the help of your excellent video. I've had my 830 for 50 years with no problems over tons of sewing, so thought I knew everything about this machine and was disappointed when the 'new' one wouldn't zigzag. Now it does!

@robertengl9152 Год назад

I repaired my singer 534 using your videos on gear replacement and timing but I am having problem with no zig zag. Can you provide any insight on how to approach that. Thanks

@matchmadeinheaven2 Месяц назад

Oh my, thank you! Now I know how to fix my machine! ❤

@theunknownchef5825 Год назад

Wonderful video as usual! I really appreciate seeing your fixes on the vintage Bernina models. Cheers

@DarthPotatoes Месяц назад

I have an old Kenmore I'm fixing right now, so this won't really apply, but this was a great video. It is giving me some new things to look into though

@thesparepage245 6 месяцев назад

THANK YOU so much for posting this video! Using your instructions, I have been able to get my machine zig-zagging again. And thank you also for warning that this could indicate the machine is due for a service - gonna book one ASAP :) Thanks again. 👍👍👍 😃😍😄

Thank you so much for this video! Fixed my newly acquired 530-2 that hasn’t been used for 30 years.

@ArlenePMCM 3 месяца назад

Thanks so much! This fixed the problem I was having. The manual only shows three top oil spots and two bottom oil spots. It seems there are many, many other oiling places.

This is wonderful info! I have this exact machine with this exact problem! Thank you so much! BTW what oil do you recommend for this machine? Cheers

@denabeels 8 месяцев назад

Mine was okay for zizzag, but not for other patterns. Is there any possibility to try this method?

@canlelola 2 месяца назад

Thank you, I picked up a used 830 from an opshop and found it wasn't able to trigger the zig zag. Looks like it just needs an oil, but um what grease should I use on the gears, mine is dry as a bone.

My Bernina 830 Record, the zigzag switch back dial is loose; the small knob works fine, but the back dial slides around. Probably not something series, I can count the settings with the small knob, but I sure would like to find a way to fix the loose dial. ? Thanks!
