Being new to Berninas, I have a question. When I first turn on the Activa125, the needle makes a noise and vibrates back and forth. I think the machine is calibrating itself. Then when I step on the foot controller. It makes another weird noise near the bobbin/shuttle area of the machine but sews just fine and makes no more weird sounds until I switch off the power and then switch it on again. Then upon turning on, the needle wobbles back and forth and again the foot controller makes a weird sound again. I think I understand the needle part but is the noise with the foot controller normal? Thanks for explaining the step motors in this video.
Chris, my wife has a Bernina1130S machine. It ran great, but started to have some issues when it was put in reverse. The Bernina tech told us that her stepping motor was bad, and they do not make it anymore. Since we got it back, it won't don't anything but a short stitch, it will not do a long stitch. Any advice?
Thanks for this informative video. Question, does this same motor affect how straight our straight stitches are? A friend of mine told me that our straight stitches are just smashed zig zag stitches and therefore not a true straight stitch say, like the vintage Singers, i.e. 201 or 301. I own a 1090 and a Singer 301 and normally my 1090 produces a very straight stitch with no wobbles.
Awesome tutorial! Thanks Chris for doing this!

Karla Caldwell the straight stitch is just a straight stitch. With no zig zag.
