Repair a Bernina 1230 that won't turn on

Here's how to disassemble a Bernina 1230 or 1130, and replace the main circuit board.
This machine wouldn't turn on at all. After removing the back panel, the fuse was checked, as was the on/off switch located on the board. All tested fine. An inspection of the board itself, under magnification, showed that a component was burned.
The circuit board was replaced with a good used board, and the machine now works perfectly.

Wow I've heard people complain about the cost of a service they are quite complex machines

@sehryn 3 года назад

OK. I know now how to get to the circuit board. And close it up again. But! How do I take out and put in the circuit board?

Can a 930 circuit board be replaced?

@brianfrobisher2229 6 лет назад

It might be nice to actually show the screws that need to be removed under the machine to remove side plate, I know mentioned but visuals are always nice. Thanks for the cool video!

Can you please make a video explaining how to replace the reverse button on a Bernina 1130?

@austinado16 2 года назад

I repair sewing machines as an occasional hobby, so I won't be of any assistance.

Hi , I have a problem with my Bernina 1130 PCB ( almost identical like this one ) where in one of the capacitor is blown up. My question is could it be totally removed without replacement? If yea, are there any problems with the running of the machine? Or after removal of the broken capacitor does it need to be replaced with an appropriate replacement capacitor? I would appreciate your thoughts/ feedback please, Ramana.

@austinado16 8 месяцев назад

If this were my machine, I would either purchase a new capacitor and solder it in, or pay someone who does electronics work to do the job. Extremely nice machine, and worth saving!

I have a Bernina 930, last of the electronic non computerized machines, it's a glorious beast. It has worked fine since I bought it in the 80's and today went to start it up, it won't turn on at all, noda nothin. Any ideas?

Where can I get a new Bernina circuit board to replace one that was burned? Thank you.

@austinado16 3 года назад

I don't know. Maybe ebay? Or through Bernina or a dealer?

Hello! thanks for the video My sister gift me a Bernina 1230. I was trying to figure it out how works but now the needle doesn’t want to go down. And I don’t know if press a bottom by mistakes. Any ideas of what can be happen? TIA

@austinado16 2 года назад

I don't know what could be wrong with it.

Hello!. Can you show where the fuse is located?

@austinado16 2 года назад

The fuse is located to the lower left of the tall silver metal canister component (probably a capacitor?) in the lower left area of the circuit board. You can see the fuse come into view at 2:10 in the video, and there is a large "1.6AT" printed on the board, just above it. Even if the fuse looks good, in the middle fuse-strip area, it would be worth either replacing it, or removing it, cleaning it's contact ends, and the contact tabs on the board, and even doing an ohm test on the fuse (or just replace it). Because the machines are so old now, it's possible for a layer of light corrosion or haze to develop on that shiny metal, and interrupt the flow of current either getting to, or coming out of, the fuse.

Where does one obtain a new/used circuit board?

@austinado16 3 года назад

I have found them on ebay. Thanks for watching.

@hosseinsagharichi4140 6 месяцев назад

Hi. How could you find that board . I need this exact same board and I don't how where to buy it?

@austinado16 6 месяцев назад

I was working on this machine (and shooting this video), 7yrs ago. There was still an availability of parts. I don't know where you'd find parts now, but someone skilled with circuit board repair should be able to repair it easily.

Can you recommend where I can buy a new/good used circuit board that ships to South Africa?

@austinado16 8 лет назад

Their are sellers on ebay from time to time, who have circuit boards for sale. Just make sure you purchase the version that works with your country's voltage. There is a version for 120v countries, like the one you see me installing in this video, and a version for 220v countries.

+austinado16. Thank you very much.

Hi Cherise, did you get a board for your Bernina? regards Chris Sewing Repair my e mail adress is chris@sewingrepair.co.za should you need any assistance

@iggyreilly2463 6 лет назад

Austinado, ty for your videos -- very helpful! I have been informed that a stepper motor needs lubrication, specifically the one that controls stitch length. Is this something I can do (with instructions)? TY!
