Beogram 4002 problem delay in tonearm lift

[Dillen]

The problem could be that the plunger gets permanently magnetized, and it will
stick to the metal bracket.
I have seen this a few times.
Take it apart and demagnetize it.

how do I demagnetize it? do you mean the brackets attached to the brass plunger right?

[dantest]

I see you mean this (the plunger and the part inside). Is there a way of doing it without unsoldering the solenoid? I am really not that good at soldering.

Also if this was the problem should I hear the relay clicking and then the arm lifting with some delay afterwards?

What I think happens instead is that the relay triggers with some delay after the botton is clicked or whenever the arm gets to the end of the record. Added a video for more context
