Needle Breaking

Why is my needle breaking?

Requests for more information

Request from sewright2009 on April 6th, 2020 4:40 AM
Thank you for sending the link. I've tried all this before I posted. I apologize, I should have given more information originally. I was strolling along just fine when I noticed on program one (straight stitch), that my needle started slowly veering to the right. I stopped performed general maintenance. When I restarted the needle broke oh, so I put a new needle in and it did the same thing. It appears that the needle holder is trying to do a very slow zig-zag when on Stitch 1.

I Know the Answer!
