Brothers sewing machine bobbin winder only goes for a couple of seconds ?

I have an almost new Brother sewing & emb. machine
model SE350. The bobbin winder will only work for a couple of seconds then quits winding. If I hold my
finger on top of it, it will wind more but not much.
Can you help? thanks so much
Linda

Hello Linda,
Either there is some sort of residue on the winder rubber, or the rubber is worn on one part which is unlikely or the winder needs moving towards the balance wheel a bit more which I think would be a shop job if your machine has a two part body.
