- This is a walk through of fixing the calibration stops for the Husqvarna Viking Designer 1 Sewing/Embroidery machine. If you are getting the pop up window that says "Slide off hoop. Clear embroidery arm for positioning. Use presser foot R. Press OK" and when you press ok the window doesn't go away this may fix it for you.
You will need the replacement part #412 54 64-01 Calibration Stop Lever. Be sure to ORDER TWO! I found it at nashuasewandvac.com
Thank you Julie!! I would love more videos on how to work this machine! I had one passed down to me and looking for more information!! ☺
Thank you so much. I just ordered the parts and can’t wait to fix my machine :0)
I’m excited for it to work again for you! You can do it!
Where do you buy these?
Wow - Clear and exact instructions. Thanks.
Glad it was helpful!😄
I just watched your video on replacing the calibration gear. I tried to order the gear, I can not find it anywhere. Can you please help me find where I may purchase one of the gears?
I got two of these: www.nashuasewandvac.com/shop/c/p/Viking-Designer-Calibration-Stop-412546401-x62924641.htm
Your video was exactly what I needed to fix my machine thank you!!! Unfortunately now I am experiencing a different problem, my Viking designer se will not start up. When I turn it on it lights up and goes to the start screen “keeping the world sewing” and it won’t do anything else… I can’t access the service menu or anything. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thank you!!
Thank you Julie, this was a perfect video. I followed the video and now my designer 1 works perfectly. One suggestion, tell your watchers they need to order two of the calabration stops. I failed to notice there are two places that need them. I ordered one, (7.99, 8.99 shiping) so the next day I had to order the second one. 8.99 shipping. lol I had my machine to three different shops, no one could fix it, they all said it was too old and no more parts. None of them looked at the arm. All are machine dealers. They would be glad to sell me a new one for $10,000, I said, no thank you. I have paid less for a car. lol Also, I bought EQ6 many years ago, I called them to get the ok to download the program again ( I have a new laptop) they said they have EQ8 on sale $150. So I bought the new and improved program. The thing is they took the part of the program that I used away. I can get that part of the program for $40. per month. A RIP OFF!!
I’m glad the video was helpful. I had the same problem with people not able to fix it. I’ll make a note to order two- I had to pay for shipping twice too, which was frustrating but less expensive than a new embroidery module.
Hi Julie, Thank you for showing this, it will help so many of us to keep these great vintage machines working.
Do you know where I can get the first gear you removed? The larger one?
Please do not add music to any demo video. It hurts the ears.
Voice is loud enough and then you add loud music, it is too much. This is chasing away subscribers.
Great video though, thank you.
Thanks for the feedback! I’m glad it was helpful !
Great video with clear instructions. I think it was a little too good as Nashua is out calibration stops. I tried a 3D printed part from eBay with no success. Do you have any other suggestions for where this part may be found. Thanks!
I had the same problem and the only place I could find them was called dr Danes sewing machine hospital… they were pricey, I would suggest calling them and see if they can combine the shipping and or offer alternative shipping options
Thanks for the alternative! I just checked that site and it’s definitely difficult to navigate. I’ll have to keep checking to see if I can find it. I ended up using a hairdryer to soften the 3D printed parts I found on eBay. They then slid on easily. I’m not sure how durable they’ll be though, so it would be nice to find an alternative. Thanks again.
Thank you, I finally found the item and have it on order. Thank you so much for your video
You are so welcome!
Where do buy these at?
