can someone say how to put this plug together, there are two cords, one goes to the pedal and the other from wall plug to sewing machine. Don't know if the pedal should get its power from the motor, it's a bit confusing because the two cords coming from the motor are brown colored, don't know which is live or ground the blue and brown cord comes from the lamp. if anyone knows grateful

Re: Sewing machine Husqvarna 1610 electric contact
I'm not sure what you mean by "how to put this plug together" as it looks like it is already together.
Going by picture 1, it looks like the connector next to the switch (2 pins) is for the foot pedal, and the connector on the right (2 pins) is for the a/c line. Post a picture of both the foot pedal and the a/c line cord.Last edited by R_J; 04-22-2023, 09:16 PM.

Re: Sewing machine Husqvarna 1610 electric contact
It seems this foot switch is not for this model sewing machine, The machine uses 4 wires, and I would think the footswitch is on the neutral or ground, but in this situation I don't think it really matters. The footswitch must just turn the motor on and off, it is not a variable speed footswitch.
The first picture connects the wires using black as neutral as the two center pins are connected by a coil. The second picture has the two black wires separated and each connected to its own pin on the sewing machine. Either should work.Last edited by R_J; 04-23-2023, 12:28 PM.

Re: Sewing machine Husqvarna 1610 electric contact
I have no idea which pin is the LIVE pin on that plug in your country, It looks like the plug can be inserted in the outlet either way, so it would not matter which is the live pin as neither is connected to the machine case.
All you are doing is turning a motor on and off, with a foot switch, how complicated can it be?
In Canada the White wire is neutral and the live wire is Black, if the plug is not polarized, it doesn't matterLast edited by R_J; 04-23-2023, 03:06 PM.

Re: Sewing machine Husqvarna 1610 electric contact
in our country Sweden brown is neutral and bleu is live or bleu = + and black neutral and if it is grounded then it is bleu + brown - and yellow-green soil.
But this construction in the machine only matches half way bleu and brown that goes to the lamp but then the white that is to laid. Going by picture 1, it looks like the connector next to the switch (2 pins) is for the foot pedal, and the connector on the right (2 pins) is for the a/c line. Post a picture of both the foot pedal and the a/c line cord.

Originally posted by petehall347 View Postlive neutral reversed shouldnt matter much . it would confuse me as brown is live and blue neutral here .
on another note the correct cable with plug is available to buy new .
but i think the correct coupling is -++- it's a bit confusing with coil in those two middle connectors

Re: Sewing machine Husqvarna 1610 electric contact
The motor should not be a concern, the only item that would be a concern would be the lamp. The lamp socket (the outer part that has the threads) should be connected to neutral. other than that, everything else should be isolated and never exposed to a live line
