Mend Singer Up New Motor Machine

How do I connect up a new motor to my singer sewing machine?

My singer 6105 sewing machine went fizzle pop! We have purchased a new motor with foot control included but we are having difficulty with the electric wire connections. My machine has a light and an on/off switch which I want to continue to use. Any advice please? The new motor has a live and neutral wire attached by "spade" attachments it also has 3 spare empty spade connection points. My old motor has 2 neutral wires and 2 live wires leading to the on/off switch and the light.

not so easy if i cant see the unit and test where wire are suppose to go but maybe a few tips will help.on a 3 prong normally the outside 2 are for the motor,one off them must have direct power in for one side of motor plus power for the light.one life wire coming in from mains can run thru on/off switch or you can use this switch for light only.this means life wire going thru switch to motor life and other is neutral.middle prong is the "switch"that trigger by foot control.sort the motor wires first and the rest will follow by logic.be sistematic and draw the circuit on paper,it also help to prevent confusion.hope the tip help
