[help] Foot pedal for this Brother machine? (feddit.de)

Just a shot in the dark but I thought it’s worth trying:

I bought this old Brother machine, but it came without a foot pedal. The machine has a power cable and another cable with a 2-pin flat prong female connector, which is where the pedal is supposed to go.

It looks very similar to this machine on EBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/283520681227?_ul=IN

All the “universal” pedals I see online don’t have this kind of connector. Does anyone know where I can find a replacement, or even what type of pedal I’m looking for?

I don’t know the exact model number and also don’t have the manual, sadly.

The person I bought it from said it was serviced and working but the pedal was broken and they couldn’t find a replacement.

I’ll try finding a repair person, but I live in a small country so my hopes are low. Thanks for the idea though!

I think the machine you have is a Brother Super Flairmatic 190B sewing machine. (I used Google lens on the picture you posted). If you search this on Google, you'll find quite a bit of information, and there's even a YouTube video!!! You might even be able to find a manual this way. Good luck!!!
