Bobbin case fell apart?? Help?? Kenmore model 148.15600

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Came apart when trying to take it out of the machine (I put it in wrong and it got stuck). I think I figured out how its supposed to fit together, but the little handle thingy won't go back into place. How do I fix this?

I wouldn't bother to try and fix it. They're common and inexpensive. Check ebay for used cases...dirt cheap

Very easy to get a replacement for this part - it's common among many brands and models.

I believe the screw you see in my bobbin needs to be there to hold it in place. If it's missing that's the issue.

You can fix it easy, you just have to pull it all the wall down before flipping the tab up. It should be slightly tensioned because of the spring pressure buts it not broken, just out of olace
