Replacing A Sewing Machine Bobbin Winder?

The bobbin winder in a sewing machine.Hi, I saw a number of threads on sewing machines, so I thought I could see if anyone has any insight before I consult a professional (would like to fix the problem on my own if possible).

I bought a Singer 8763 from Goodwill which worked, besides the bobbin winder which was broken. Thus, I ordered a replacement. I believe I was able to put the new bobbin winder in correctly, but cannot seem to fit the spring into place without the bobbin winder locking into place and not being able to change positions. Does anyone know the correct way the bobbin winder and spring are supposed to be placed? Please help!

You could also contact Singer directly. Www.singer.com.

Thank you, I watched quite a few videos, but could not find a video for the particular problem. I will try looking into the singer website.

It would be nice if companies offered help with problems but most do not have sufficient tech personnel to answer questions so they usually respond with a form letter providing the address of a Singer sales and repair shop.

However, there are a couple of forums that are usually very helpful and can provide diagrams of so many types and, truthfully, these are sites to keep as they can help with so many problems (that you may have in the future).
Here are the links - join and post your question.

I did mean to ask if you tried contacting the shop where you made your purchase to see if they could help you?

Here is a link to a free manual.

Thank you for the links to the other forms I appreciate it! Also, because I bought the sewing machine at a goodwill, I doubt they would have any resources for sewing machines.

Thus, I will try other options, but it's nice to know there are so many places for sewing machine help.
