I have a Singer model 2662. It's supposed to be able to stitch 38 different ways, but it only does a straight stitch. I'm just learning how to sew and bought it used, so I don't know how to maintain it. How often to clean it or oil it or anything else.

Here is the full manual for your Singer:

I have the manual, but it doesn't have anything on this
In addition to the manual, you can find tutorials on YouTube.
I would check the machine for any accumulation of lint or threads. Also, take off the covers and see if any parts are rubbing against each other. Make sure you oil the machine as well.
i think you should start with following the manual (reading/checking) and see if you have done exactly as indicated for selecting stitch pattern - see pages 20-28 and then make sure you have followed the instructions for oiling - page 45.
I have the same machine and have the same problem. I have taken the front off the machine it appears that despite the display showing the Stitch selector moving, the mechanism on the inside is not moving up and down.
