I have a Family Sew FS-550s servo motor on my Singer 111W151. It was working fine for hours tonight, and then suddenly it started running at full speed even when the speed control was turned down and the foot lever not depressed. If the powers on, even if the foot pedal isn't depressed it starts running at full speed until I turn off the power.

I'm guessing it's toasted?

I had a similar problem from a servo motor. Thankfully it was under warrant and I got some of my money back but I got a lot of grief from the seller, one of the sponsors here... is yours under warrant still?

Well I had the same problem. Motor under warrenty bought from one of the sellers here and didn't get money back or repaired, Was told it must have been something I did, they had never had that problem before. Go figure.

I have 3 of these and never a problem....

Yea I'm pretty sure it's a case by case thing. Have heard many ppl are happy with it and have heard that many didn't need a reducer when buying this.

With that said, I have a pretty good idea of who they were referring too but I would hate to be wrong... So...

I bought mine from Toledo Industrial Sewing machines, and it has ran like a top for over a year now. This is the first time I have seen a complaint about the motor, but hearing Made in China electronics suddenly broke doesn't surprise me much.
