Hi. There sad to say isn't a service/repair manual posted publicly online specific for the FashionMate 5500 model. I will therefore suggest you contact Singer directly from here http://www.singerco.com/contact-us for your service options. Also consider justanswer.com/singer if you are handy and do not mind paying a small fee for an online repair walk through.
