Trying to help out a friend with the Denon DP-30L TT. It starts fine, runs for 5-10 minutes, then just stops! Wait a while, maybe 5-10 minutes, turn it back on and it starts again but then the same symptom.....dies.
While dead, I manipulated the speed control wheel a few turns back and forth and it started up again. Doing so after it stopped did not consistently "revive" it, so thinking I may have happened upon part of the issue but not the entire thing. I can get it to start that way, but not consistently.
I've opened it up and cleaned the speed control dial pot with Deoxit D5 (twice now), pulled the power plug on the circuit board that comes from the motor and cleaned the plug and the 3 pins that it attaches to (which were fairly corroded) and they are now looking very clean again. I'm thinking it is in the motor, but would sure like to hear from some of the Denon folks here who may have experienced this symptom themselves and hope for some advice.
Next step would be to disassemble the motor and see what might be cleaned in there, but am holding off until I hear back from you.
Thanks very kindly.
