Question edited for full 'make model (what it is)'. Question moved to maker category. You either have a threading issue, or a tension issue, or both issues. Read the Article and watch the videos. By thread tension, we mean the amount of thread that can pass through the machine to create the stitch. The more thread in the stitch, then the looser the stitch. The less thread, then the tighter the stitch. Top thread tension is controlled by a dial on the machine's thread path. Sep 11, 2018

sounds like the pressure foot lifter is stuck. Usually the height of the pressure foot is a manual adjustment done by a service technician.

Good luck.

You could have an electronic problem on the main printed circuit board or in the feed length stepper motor. You may also just have a bound section in the feed mechanism. I don't think there is a cure all answer for this problem.
A 1/2 second hesitation between depressing the foot control and motor response is very common in these machines
If your husband lubricated the bushings on the upper and lower shafts of your 990 I recommend that you have him remove all of the lubricant possible and keep your fingers crossed. The 990 is a self-lubricating machine and applying machine oil to these bushing will probably cause them to seize. The 990 should never be lubricated in many of the places you would lubricate many machines. Hopefully, you haven't done irreparable damage.

The older 6XXX series are the best machines Viking ever made. But they have one flaw - if the button hole mechanism is not regularly serviced and used, it will eventually stick and the machine will only sew in reverse. This can also happen if you turn the knob backwards when in button hole mode.

I always tell my customers to make a few button holes every time they use the machine. This helps to keep the mechanism free and working between servicing.

Unfortunately the fix is not a DIY consumer project. It requires knowledge and expertise in disassembling the machine and re-aligning the parts. Expect to pay anywhere from $25 to $75 in addition to the regular servicing fee.

I found a Classica 90 that wouldnt reverse. When I took it apart I realized the stitch width mechanism was stuck.
The reversing mechanism manipulated that part to reverse. Problem- mechanism and shaft super stuck. I took it out and forced the shaft to turn and lubed it with a general thin oil. I didn’t know the mechanism; or anything about sewing machines. The give-away was a spring connected to the mechanism. Since it was stuck the spring didn’t seem to have any function..... until I realized it had to be moving. Hope it makes sense.
One screw top back to removed cover. It glides up.
1 screen behind reverse button removes front cover. Also slides up. You reach from behind to get the mechanism out( 2 screws holding small shaft. 2 springs off also. )
Front cover needs to come off to dissemble stitch width turning nob. Has to come of to release the reversing/stitch width mechanism.
It’s not as difficult as it look. You might need a small plier to put springs back in place
Foto shows the stitch width mechanism. The front spring is attached to the part that was stuck.

I had this problem when I first bought my machine. I took it in and they told me it was a recall problem. All the machines were having the same problem. They fixed it and I have not had the problem since. I bought mine at a Joanne fabrics. Hope this helps.

Where can I buy a dongel and emb card for my Scandinavia 400? Thank you for your help Ruth [email protected]

Good luck.

Did you check to be sure you placed the bobbin back in the holder correctly? I think it might snap in. Also, is the bobbin holder clipped back in? Lastly, do you have the bobbin going in the correct direction when the thread comes out? Some go in clockwise and some counter-clockwise.

I am having the same problem with Premier+. The dongle is activated, and the activation code shows up in the software registration linked to the HASP key, but when I open the software I get the error message H0031. I tried to activate the dongle again using the activation code in Premier Configure, and it seemed to work, but still I have the same issue in the program. I am using Windows 10 and hoping to hook it up to my Husqvarna Designer SE soon ! Very frustrating. The light on the dongle is solid red. I have tried removing the drivers and reinstalling, and tried both the drivers from Premier+ and also SafeNet (which are more current). Same issue with both

Huskies are the Best! Please remove the feeder plate - under the needle, and look for any fabric still jammed. Remove any way you can - small screwdriver, nail-file. (It will take removing a small screw or two.) Unless you find metal parts, broken bits, you did not break anything. Removing bunched fabric should do it. On the other hand, if you do find broken parts - Viking is Amazing! They can machine broken parts of sewing machines and guns, back before 1900! Love them! Just remove any parts related to where fabric cound be jammed, remove all you find, and try again.

Repair manuals are available only to Husqvarna Viking authorized dealers. However, I have seen some on ebay from time to time. Sounds like your problem could be several things - binding of the internal drive shaft which may have a build up of grease and lint which unbinds as you sew, could be a faulty motor, or faulty transformer. Suggest that it be serviced and cleaned by an authorized Husqvarna Viking Dealer. You can find the nearest dealer by click on the "Dealer" link at http://www.husqvarnaviking.com

Good luck.
