Annoying isn't it.

Hi Chris, Unfortunately the 5 pin DIN to PCB connector has been cut off flush with the TT case. The rectangular 6 pin plug looks okay but the cable is only about 200mm long and cut at one end. You would need to join it - any use? Thanks, Matt

Thanks Martin, could be tricky as the TT arrived without a platter - previous owner making a B&O wall clock? However, if anyone needs some spares from this turntable for free (just cover P&P), please let me know. Matt

Swapped the trim pots and all's okay now. Thanks for your interest.

Gave the motor a tap as you suggested and it seems okay. That leaves the trim pots - just bought a broken 4002 (for £6.50...) and will swap them over to see if that does the trick. Thanks

Thanks Martin for your quick reply. I'll try cleaning and lubricating (sowing maching oil okay?) the motor and giving it a tap as you describe over the weekend and let you know how I get on. Thanks again, Matt

Hi, I have a Beogram 4002 with a platter speed problem - during playback at 33 1/3 it slows down dramatically. I have changed both belts for new ones and cleaned the sub platter and motor spindle to ensure no slipping is happening. When I increase the speed with the trim pot things inprove for a while but eventually things slow down again. Things seem

Hi, I've just bought a 1202 from ebay only to find that is has suffered some water damage internally at some point in its life - how it can be described as in 'good working order' is a bit of a mystery to me but there you go. The main area of concern appears to be the relay, arms, cap and diode assembly contained in the clear plastic box
