Featherweight Foot Petal Wire Repair
#1
One of my foot petal has wiring that has frayed at the 3 prong plug part..it is the old type of wire...I can even see some silver wiring at the very end...I guess I shouldn't be using it like this???
Is this a hard thing for me to try to replace by myself...and/or does anyone know of a tute that I can check out as to how to change the wire..I would like to try to do it myself, if possible...with hubby's help???
Any advice would be appreciatied...

I see that you are in the Toronto area so someone must repair machines there. I had my Janome lady (Pat's Sewing Centre) in Alliston Ontario rewire mine with a new cord set. She did a clean, service and re-wire for $70 and did it in less than a week. Don't ever try to use vintage machines with broken, frayed, cracked or rubbery wires as they can give you an awful shock.
