    With electronics you never know what else could be affected down the line, I would think they'd replace your machine. You're lucky it's still under warranty!!

    Wow, I'm sorry that happened to you. I have the 7700 too. I have it plugged into an extension cord that plugs into the surge supressor. One day I went downstairs to sew, turned the machine on and it wouldn't go on. I went over to the extension cord, unplugged it and plugged it into another slot in the cord. It worked, I figured the extension cord must have had a bad connection, it was one of those double sided ones. I was relieved, because weird stuff like that happens to me all the time. So far so good. They should definitely replace your machine.

    I sure hope they replace it. That seems like the thing to do. Keep us posted.

    My condolences. I would think any reputable dealer would replace it for you - especially since you haven't had it for too long. Good Luck!

    Hi, I used to work at a Brother dealership in MN and once in a while a machine would have a bad computer board. If it is still under warranty you should be able to have the board replaced,or the whole machine. Just remember each machine will run a little bit different than the other.
    Take a deep breath and enjoy what you can of your day.
    Good luck, Gina in MI

    Oh, no! I also bought my Janome 7700 back in July and I also am from Massachusetts...wonder if we bought from the same dealer? It should still be under warranty, right?

    Good luck today. I know what it is like to loose a machine in the middle of a project. Mine were not under warranty though.
