Machine Not Sewing - Seems Like Motor Is Slipping After Winding Bobbin

After filling the bobbing and switching the bobbin into sewing mode, the motor makes a noise but the needle will not move. When I switch the winder to bobbin filling mode, the bobbin winder spins. It is like it is not engaging with the needle when it is switched to sewing mode. Any suggestions?
