Why does my Brother Innov-is 80 not operate?
- W
  Wayne AndersonAug 18, 2025
  Your Brother Sewing Machine might not be operating for several reasons: * The machine isn't turned on, so turn it on. * The start/stop button wasn't pressed, so press it. * The presser foot lever is raised, so lower it. * The start/stop button was pressed even though the foot controller is connected. If a foot controller is connected, do not use the start/stop button; disconnect the foot controller to use the start/stop button.
