Thanks all for the quick responses! Great community here with too much information...
Four wires. Blue, Yellow, Red, and Green for the signals and grounds. I cleaned the contacts on the cartridge as they were easy to get to...lol. I bent them up a bit to be sure they were making good contact. They're nice and shiny. Still no joy out of the left. I'll grab my meter and test for continuity. While wire breaks are rare, maybe a solder connection has broken inside so I'll look. Couldn't hurt. Getting to the contacts inside the headshell will be a little trickier as I don't know how to get the arm off the unit. Heck, I can't even get the table out of the wooden base (I think that's the plinth? Sorry, still a little new to this stuff...).
