What does the eye pattern look like on a scope? If it expands & contracts horizontally you have a bad spindle motor.

If you jar the table near the stereo it skips, sometimes badly. I have changed the pickup for a new replacement one. It seems to be a newer digital style with no apparent adjustments on the board so I cannot set up the tracking error or any other adjustment. The only thing left that I can see would be to replace the cables from the pickup to the board. I have replaced the flat ribbon type cable on other machines and had success but this one has two separate cables with individual wires. Has anyone had the same trouble with this type of cabling?TIA > Wilf Blakey/Blakey TV,Kirkland Lake,Ont > wblakey@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > > > ------------------------------------------ > Make your TechAssist database better! > Submit Repair Tips here: http://www.tech-assist.org/secure/tip/ > ------------------------------------------ > To UNSUBSCRIBE your email address, click here: > mailto:techassist-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe > Or send a BLANK email with unsubscribe in the > SUBJECT field to the address above. > > ------------------------------------------ Make your TechAssist database better!
