I was typing on this machine when the print wheel opened up. I changed to a new daisy wheel and it would not type at all. The print hammer would not move to strike the daisy wheel. I even tried putting back in the old daisy wheel, but this did not work. Please help me figure out what is wrong. I use this typewriter almost daily.

This could be a problem with your circuit board moving out of place. You will need to open your typewriter and move your circuit board back in place. This will realign your key and allow your typewriter to type again.

The troubleshooting section says it needs to be serviced by a qualified technician. I'm not sure how easy it is to find someone to fix this. Good luck.
