    What to do if my Bernina Sewing Machine skips stitches?

      Brian HoweAug 25, 2025
      Skipped stitches can occur if you're using the wrong needle, so ensure you're using the 130/705H needle system. Replace the needle if it is blunt or bent, and make sure it is a BERNINA quality needle. Check that the needle is correctly inserted with the flat side to the back, pushed as far as it can go into the needle holder, and that the screw is tightened. Finally, match the needle point to the material's texture.

      Julie BrooksAug 27, 2025
      If you encounter an error during a software update, first ensure you are using a BERNINA USB stick. If the update process is blocked with an inactive hourglass, remove the USB stick, switch the machine off and on, and then follow the display instructions. If the software update data cannot be found, unzip the update data and save it directly onto the USB stick, not within a folder.

      Faulty stitching on your Bernina sewing machine can often be resolved by checking for these issues: * Thread remnants between the thread tension discs; fold a piece of thin material and slide the folded edge (not the raw edges) between the thread tension discs. * The machine may be incorrectly threaded; rethread it. * Thread remnants below the bobbin case spring; remove the thread remnants under the spring.

    Why is my Bernina 555 QE needle breaking?
    • B
      brittanyzhangSep 14, 2025
      A breaking needle on your Bernina sewing machine could be due to several reasons: * The needle may be incorrectly inserted; insert the needle with the flat side to the back as far up as it will go into the needle holder and tighten the screw. * The fabric might be pulled; feed the fabric evenly. * Thick fabric may have been pushed; use the appropriate presser foot, such as Jeans foot No. 8 for thick material. * The thread may be knotted; use quality thread.

      Lower thread breakage can occur if the bobbin case is damaged, in which case you should replace it. If the stitch hole in the stitch plate is damaged, contact a specialized BERNINA dealer for repairs. Also, ensure the needle isn't blunt or bent; replace it if necessary.

    Why does my Bernina 555 QE Sewing Machine needle keep breaking?
    • A
      Austin SwansonSep 2, 2025
      A broken needle can result from several issues. Ensure the needle is correctly inserted with the flat side to the back and pushed fully into the needle holder before tightening the screw. Avoid pulling the fabric; instead, feed it evenly. For thick fabrics, use an appropriate presser foot like Jeans foot No. 8. Also, be sure to use quality thread to prevent knotted thread from causing the needle to break.
