- Machine won't run or runs intermittently

Why Cog Belts Matter
The cog motor belt is a critical component in your Bernina's drive system. Unlike smooth V-belts, cog belts have teeth that mesh with toothed pulleys, providing secure engagement and preventing slipping. This ensures reliable power transfer for needle movement, feed dog operation, and all internal components. A worn or damaged cog belt can cause loss of power or complete machine failure.
IMPORTANT: Bernina 1000 Series Belt System Guide
The Bernina 1000 series uses a two-belt system with ONE upper belt and TWO different lower belt options depending on your model:
Upper Belt (1000 Series Models):
- Part #0015275000 (160XL025, 80 teeth) - this product - fits 1000 series models
Lower Belt - Choose Based on Your Model:
- For Models 1000-1015: Part #0023765000 (246X2GT, 123 teeth) - smaller lower belt
- For Models 1020-1630: Part #0015285000 (258-2GT, 129 teeth) - larger lower belt
How to Choose the Correct Lower Belt: This upper belt fits all models, but you need to select the correct lower belt based on your model number. If your model is 1015 or lower (1000, 1000+, 1001, 1004, 1005, 1006, 1008, 1010, 1011, 1015), you need Part #0023765000. If your model is 1020 or higher (1020, 1030, 1031, 1070, 1080, 1090, 1120, 1130, 1230, 1530, 1630), you need Part #0015285000.
Installation Tips
- This upper belt fits all 1000 series models - verify your model number to choose the correct lower belt
- Check belt tension after installation - should be snug but not overly tight
- Inspect pulleys for wear or damage when replacing belt
- Ensure teeth properly mesh with pulley grooves
- Consider replacing both upper and lower belts together for best results
- Keep spare belts on hand for future maintenance
