Stitch Selection Dial Will Not 'seat' On Straight-stitch.
The selection dial will "seat" on corresponding special stitches, but not in the "gray" selections which is where the straight stitch selection is. I made an adjustment on the right-side, not front, of the machine and the machine worked, advancing the fabric, and going in the proper direction, and then, it decided to stop and not advance. Machine is sewing in reverse only. Thanks for any help you may offer. Lynne
