Your first step should be to call Pfaff, at 800-446-2333. If you can't get the part from the manufacturer you should at least be able to obtain the part number. Then if necessary you can try the following:
- Contact local parts dealers, who might be able to supply or maybe fix the part
- Try sewing machine merchants, who might be able to supply or maybe fix the part
- Enter your part number in a search engine like Google or Yahoo
- Try eBay--search with the part number
- Try a used appliance store
- Take the part to an appliance technician, who might possibly be able to fix the part
- Contact refurbishing companies
