Beogram 5500 platter wont spin

[Enggaard]

Hi,

I’m new to this forum and believe this is my first reach out for assistance.

I recently bought myself a Beogram 5500, type 5941. It has signs of age/use, but looks  OK.

I have an issue with it though, as the platter does’nt spin up when I press Turn or Play. What happens is that the platter motor spins ~1/4 turn then stops. At the same time I noticed that the solenoid for the carriage servomotor activates and the servomotor spins for a few seconds before it stops. Also  “33” lights up next to the pickup, but that’s all.

Any idea what could be the issue?

Thanks, Klaus
