NancyLou Report post Posted October 4, 2022 Hello I have a walking foot Singer 111W55. The latch that you push down after you stick bobbin into bobbin case is stuck in a straight up position. I tried oiling and putting pressure on it to release but having no luck. Any help appreciated. Thank you Nancy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shoepatcher Report post Posted October 4, 2022 There is a very small spring at the bottom of the post. See if anything got under it by removing the bobbin case and looking at the spring in the small access hole glenn Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NancyLou Report post Posted October 7, 2022 Thank you Glenn. I will look again. There did not appear to be anything last time I looked. I might need a magnifying glass as the little one I have is not good with my older eye. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shoepatcher Report post Posted October 7, 2022 I think there is a super small pin that holds the latch. See if that is gotten out of the hole that it goes in. You may have to take the bobbin case out to see what is causing the problem. glenn Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NancyLou Report post Posted October 9, 2022 Thank you. I will try that. I did take the bobbin case out to see if anything was stuck inside spring. All good with that. I will check small the small pin next. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NancyLou Report post Posted October 21, 2022 My son the engineer figured it out. I did not want to force it closed, but he said it was getting stuck up because it was a little bent. Anyways that solved. Thank you everyone for replies. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
