WOWOWOW WOWOWOW WOWOWOW, THANKYOU for this video, I've been trying to figure this out since 18months.Good thing I can still manually thread the needle. 😊
I've had my machine for 15 years, and never knew it could do this... wow!! I cannot thank you enough for this video. Me, and my dwindling sight, thank you!!!
Oh my goodness!! I wish I'd have seen this video years ago lol. I've had Janome machines since I started sewing 14 years ago and I've never used the needle threader function. Thank you so much Lorna for this, I will now use it every time. I can't believe how easy it was! Xx
Thank you! I was watching another video and I couldn't figure out why it wasn't working. Then I watched yours - that part about if the needle is not in its highest position, it won't work - was very helpful - I had the needle just a fraction too low. Little things like that really help when you are helping someone brand new to a machine! Much appreciated!
So glad it helped you. The bobbin thread once drawn up through the hole underneath the presser foot then just gets pulled too the back/left side of the machine. It doesn't go through the needle.
It may be that the threader is bent slightly - it is such a small hook that it can get bent very easily. Either give it a little bend back into the centre or it may need replacing
Hemangini Jain Sometimes it’s possible to gently push the needle threader hook back into alignment. Make sure the machine is switched off and unplugged when you do this. If not then you can order a replacement and easy enough to fit yourself.
Natalia Perez when you use the thread cutter on your machine, I find it often leaves the threads a little short. After you have cut them, make sure you give them a little pull before starting to sew again. This way when you start sewing, the needle shouldn’t come unthreaded.
You’re welcome. If a machine is digital then the needle either finishes in the fully up or down position but on this one it just depends on what position the needle falls when you finish sewing. So important it’s at the right height otherwise it won’t line up 🙂

A million thank yous!!!! My eyes are just now getting so it's hard to thread the needle. This function is a life saver. Thank you!!!!!
WOWOWOW WOWOWOW WOWOWOW, THANKYOU for this video, I've been trying to figure this out since 18months.Good thing I can still manually thread the needle. 😊
You're welcome!
I had my machine for three years and couldn’t be bothered to check out how to self- thread it. Today is the day. Woooow Thank you

Amazing!! You are very welcome!

I looove the amount of detail on this. I am a total beginner and this gave me confidence that I can do it.
Fabulous Coe! So glad you found it helpful 🙂
I just purchased a janome and have had problems with threading, I put the needle in highest position and now got it to thread.. thank you
So glad it helped you, so satisfying when you get it!
Thanks so much for this valuable little video! It’s way better than the instructions in the manual. Thanks again
Brilliant! So well explained. Couldn’t work it out from the instruction manual😊

So glad it helped you Mary :)
Thank you! I had no idea how to use this, and it works perfectly. 😊😊😊
Thank you, I was so confused before i saw your video
Exactly the demonstration I needed!
Thank you so so much!!!
I don’t have a manual for my Janome TS100Q and you bailed me out!
I’m a beginner and I’m struggling.
I’m glad you found it useful 🙂
Got it! My S5 arrives tomorrow!
Good luck with your new machine!
THANK YOU! I was finally Able to do it!...Now do I thread the bottom (bobbin) spool up into it same way?
So glad it helped you. The bobbin thread once drawn up through the hole underneath the presser foot then just gets pulled too the back/left side of the machine. It doesn't go through the needle.
Thank you 🙏🏼
Thank you so much!!!
I was struggling!
Natalia Perez you’re welcome! Once you get the knack it’s such a time saver!!!
Brilliant ! Really helpful. Thank you 😊
Sally Weinstein glad you found it useful! Brilliant once you get the hang of it!
Cheers - best explanation ever 😉

My n needle threader got crooked do I need to get it changed

My little tiny hook I think is dull
I am also facing difficulties because my machine always unthreads. Is it ok if you explain that?

Thank you just spent one hour with it nor at correct height

This is great however all my needles are threaded back to front instead of side to side so the threader doesn't work in that case....sadly,
How to use obs
The Hook can't go through the needle eye
It may be that the threader is bent slightly - it is such a small hook that it can get bent very easily. Either give it a little bend back into the centre or it may need replacing
What brand of needle did you have trouble with?
My thread keeps breaking
Try and release the needle threader really slowly and gently. Sometimes if it flicks back up suddenly the thread does break.
My threader won’t work
That is not 'automatic'!
