Why your cotton might brake?

Make sure your tension is not to tight and that there is now fluff or cotton stuck in between your tension plates. I sometimes use a string of the stitch to pull in between the tension plates. I always set the needles tension first and then i balance the tension of the upper and lower looper.

Make sure the cotton are not looped around a guide. Black cotton and some cottons can build up their own tension. Try different cotton. I've had many a headache with this problem.

 Check that the needles are not blunt or bent. I always use schmetz needles. If your needle plate has any damage where the cotton can get hooked. Use a small file or sand paper to remove it. The stitch tongue must be very smooth and the stitch must slide of smoothly. Check that your lower looper point does not have a sharp hook on it. You can use a very fine water sand paper to remove it.

If your needles are touching the looper, i could indicate that your lower looper is out of position. *.*(Always check this with new needles)

Is this a three leg capacitor on a Pfaff 1222E?:
This part on interference capacitor blew in the machine. http://www.electro-tech-online.com you can get more information and help. 

If your motor is good, the light is still on but nothing happens when you push the foot control it will be the following component faulty. I've replaced the transistor and it works perfectly again. I'll add some more photos or do another post to explain the repair in more details.

The BRY39 could be faulty.
