Looking for foot control for 427 model?

I have Singer 427 and the foot control keeps on working. even when not having a foot on it!! It's obviously 'shorting' somewhere along the line and I think I need a complete unit, with leads to the machine.

Hello Val,
No you don't need a new foot control, peel back the rubber on the botton, be careful it may be a brittle by now, undo the screw, if you hear a slight crack it will be the plastic breaking slightly from the control but don't worry because you can stick it back in again, open the control and you will what looks like a big fuse going across two terminals, slacken the screws take it out and throw it away, it is only a suppressor and after a time they blow, you don't need it, any problems e-mail me.
