    Default Need help finding cords and pedal for Viking Husqvarna 620

    I recently found this machine at a Goodwill while visiting our son and daughter-in-law in North Carolina. It had no cords or pedal. It looks now like I've wasted my money. The cords and pedal are hard to find! Can anyone advise me where to look? Oh, I think it's name may be Optima 620. Thanks for any help.

    The power cords are often hard to find, for just about any sewing machine. If you want a shock and lesson in pricing, look at one for a pfaff.

    Google "Viking 620 power cord" and study that. Good luck in your search.

    Post a photo of the plug end on the machine. Someone may have one. I know I have at least one pedal with a strange plug. I have no idea how I came to have it.

    That is a weird one. You might try contacting:

    C/O Husqvarna Viking
    P.O. Box 7017

    I think the number for complete cord and foot control is 4121566-04 The plug number is 4121566-01
    I don't know if you can just wire an electronic foot control to the cord set.
    I didn't look on ebay.

    Other possibilities:It might be worth it???

    I just bought a sewing machine repair company. He had bought out 4 other repair places that had retired. I have huge boxes of cords, motors, parts .....you name it. Send a pic of the plug in. I saw one in a box last night labeled Viking, but I don't know the number.

    I rummaged through 4 large boxes of foot controllers with cords. Most were in plastic bags, but I did not find anything with those type plug ins. So sorry.

    Thanks anyway, Marcia. I'm going to try adding a pic of where the plugs go. I did find the cords and pedal yesterday but forgot where. My problem is they cost over $100 which would be fine if I knew the machine worked and if I was planning to use this as my own machine, but I buy used machines, clean and oil them then give them away. Very hard to spend that much in this situation.
