First post to AK! I've been looking through the forums and figure if I can't find an answer here it probably doesn't exist.
I just inherited my parents Magnavox console stereo. It's a 1964-65 2ST678 with Micromatic turntable. Console is in great condition with only a few items that need fixing.
1) I can't get the reject wheel to make contact with the motor spindle. The arm on the underside of the turntable that controls the wheel doesn't want to move completely down (see attachment).
2) The turntable motor turns on when I turn the console on, not when I twist the turntable knob from Off to On. Is this normal?
3) I'm getting muted sound from the speakers even with full volume. Wiring appears to be correct based on the wiring diagram inside the unit.
Hoping someone is able to provide some direction!
