does it matter that i found out it's a 'direct drive turntable' and not the belt one? i thought maybe the belt would be the problem but found out when looking at it it was different than what i found online.
i took some pictures.

this is what's underneath. the big wheel won't budge if i try to move it but it will move slightly (and then not at all) when i spin the top. there is what i assume is a motor off to the side that's not visible in the pictures that hardly spins as well.
