spring E, point 2?
 
                I have a Singer Touchtronic 2010 machine.
When I open the slide plate, and I insert a bobbin, the little metal piece (I can describe by saying it is the piece that you draw the thread under, and then past point 2) is completely free, can move, or I can lift out.  Was there ever a little screw to hold it in place?
