Hello! I was trying to lift the feet of my sewing machine and I mistakenly unscrewed a screw and I heard a "PTAAANG!" from inside, and now the switch (apologize, English is my second language!) in the back moves but nothing happens, the feet is permanently stuck and won't lift!
I know I fixed it before but it was months ago and now I'm stuck and have no idea what to do, can someone help, please? I have a jacket to fix ASAP...
Thank you in advance!!
I tried to add a short vid but it won't let me, so I added a picture, I hope it helps!

When you raise the foot lift lever, does it cause any action inside the machine? Is the lever stiff to move at all or is it limp? What machine is it and which screw was accidentally loosened?

Nevermind, I fixed it.
I watched a video of when I opened it the first time and the tension spring was too high so I had to push it down and screw it in place, then lower the feet mechanism and that worked!
Phew I was really worried I'd have to pay hundreds to get it fixed!
