How can I repair the feed dog on my Singer Touchtronic 2001?

I have the Singer Touchtronic 2001 Memory Machine. The feed dog does not move to move the fabric through. I've cleaned the lint out, made sure it was threaded correctly, and the plates, etc. are in correctly. The feed dog does not move up and down, does not move at all. When I try to sew, it just sits there with the needle moving up and down...stitching in the same spot. I really have no idea what to do next. Can someone assist me? Thanks in advance.

I don't know that particular model, but had this happen once with a Kenmore. The gear that connected to make it move had gotten stripped. You may be able to remove the bottom of the machine and take a look. Mine had bits of the stripped gear evident immediately.

Good day to you,
It may be something as simple as a scew come loose on the feeding cam which is underneath the fee dog, you will need to take of the bottom cover, tilt the machine backwards and check that the screws are loose, if they are you may need to move the feed dog forward or back bit by bit to get the feed right, failing that it could be a broken gear, if you contact tandtrepair.com you can download the complete worksheet for your model.
