Needle Will Not Reposition

When I go to turn the needle location knob to move the needle either left or right the needle no longer moves. I turned the machine on then off and the needle does not do the "start-up" moves that it does every other time it turns on.

Please push the bobbin winder back to the left position and it will release the bobbin winder. Then you should be able to sew. If the needle won't move, you will need to tighten the turning wheel on the right side end of the machine. This should move your needle. Then you should be set to sew.
