After getting to the last part of getting my old B&O equipment operating my latest issues is as follows;

 

The Beogram 4004 hummms and does not spin--what mightbe the issue? and does anyone know of a good place for repairs in the US ( East Coast)?

You need to tell us more about where the humming is coming from (rear left , front left or somewhere else), what the record player does / doesn't do. How loud is the hum?

It will help for you to remove the top panels which will help you diagnose what is going on. This is easy enough I think there is a post somewhere round here that explains how to do it.

Not sure if the 4004 ever had ac motors? but this is a possibility..

Not sure about a repair engineer I know there are a couple of folk in the states that know B&O well, and it would be worth sending to folk like this if you are unable to tackle the fault yourself, rather than send to any old repair outlet.

If you don't feel that you can fix it yourself then

Ah thanks Graham, new there was somewhere that could do it!
