Phonograph motor fried??
#4

Thanks guys for your input. It's a bit weird. I don't think the motor is burned out. I have another one of these motors from a parts radio/phonograph that I have, both motors read around 26 ohms. I tried connecting the extra motor, same thing - doesn't work. I tested the radio/phono switch - it seems to work and I tested the onboard switch on the turntable that permits power to go to the phonograph motor when the phonograph knob is turned on and it works. I tested the continuity of the ground wire from the phonograph into the radio ground and there is continuity. I tested the continuity from where the positive power wire lead for the phonograph is connected into the radio to the radio/phonograph knob/switch and there is continuity, so the wires are ok - so it would seem that there's no power getting into the power positive wire from where it is soldered in to the radio. Maybe some cracked solder joints?? I'll have to look into it further but it is a tight little wiring mess - hard to see things well without de-soldering some components. Thanks,
