Probably a burned lamp at the tracking sensor, sitting at the foot of the tonearm carriage.

Hello Martin :

I have test the lamp on the Dial and its ok , when touch play the arm go to the record position and lower  and if touch second time play the arm goes to the finish record and come ,the dial have two bands shorts and two bands long for position on the record and the lamp read it.

I has probe to put a paper between the bulb sensor and the dial and then no read and no stop the arm and the arm recognize 33 or 45 rpm record.

The arm is ok in < > slow tracking and the << >> fast tracking in manual operation but one time the arm position in the begining of disc and the arm lower over the disc , the arm is stop, the lamp of the second arm is on.

Thanks and regards.
