Re: Singer sewing machine sticky pedal
If the pedal is still operating very erratically then there are still some dirty or loose contacts somewhere, so all you can do is dive back in and have another look. You may also find that things improve if you operate the pedal vigorously for a few minutes with the mains switched off. The technology in a rheostat pedal is very simple, and there's only a few things that can go wrong.
As you probably know, your 185K is a very solidly built machine which will do standard lockstitch sewing as effectively as anything more modern (it's basically the legendary 99 from 1911, and built like a battleship). It's well worth putting some effort into sorting it out.
