- This one almost had me, for the longest time I could not figure it out. Then I won. This Spiral scratch player had no audio on only one channel and finally I figured it out as being a dirty or corroded connection. Thanks everyone for all of your likes and support. Leave a comment and I will try and respond when I have time.

Thank you so much for your video. I have a fluance R85 and had lost channels back and forth at times. I took off the stylus cleaned off the ends and reattached and I now have sound both channels again. :)
Yet another fun video. Thoroughly enjoy your uploads👍🏻
Thank you so much. I cleaned the cartridge and arm contacts with isopropyl and both channels work perfectly. You are awesome.
Every once instructions and detail. Thank you very much.
Thank for very simple to follow troubleshooting. Helped me figure out one bad RCA cable and fix the one channel problem.
Thank you, my friend! This saved my life!!! I checked everything - and it was the corrosion right behind the needle , like you showed WOW ;-) !
This is the perfect video for troubleshooting and I am so grateful I found this. Thanks!
Brilliant - simple but effective - I have a Dual 5000 with a similar problem - I now know exactly what I am looking for. Your work makes CZcams a better and more useful place. Many thanks.
Bravo . . . your channel is incredible and just found it! Thumbs up and subscribing!! Destined to become a CZcams top creator without any doubt! Better than Clive and Ave!!
Thanks for this video. It enabled me to use my multi-meter to isolate a right channel short to a bad cartridge. I was setting up an older turntable for my grandson, and could not figure out why the right channel was not working. I have little electronics repair experience and was about ready to take this TT into a repair shop, and likely pay more than what it is worth; but your video demonstrated a common sense approach I used, leading to a successful replacement of a bad cartridge. My grandson is happy with his new "old school" stereo! Thanks again!
Awesome, another one saved from the scrap heap!
Some issue with a Technics sl-b3, sound only through one channel. Followed same steps from cartridge to rca connectors to find that there was current all along the cables. So, alcohol on cartridge connector, pencil eraser in the inside, connect to receiver and voila! Sound in stereo as new! Thank you so much for your tutorial.
Thank you for your video, it help me solve the same problem
Thank you so much for this video. I had the same problem with my Taya DP-510. I did not have a multimeter, so I just tried the fix that worked for you - and that was it. :D
Thank you....your video helped a lot! My audio droped right playing the same record as you in this video... so funny ...The good old Tom Petty
didn't know that you were still active on CZcams, that's great
I love your videos and I was surprised to see you using a powerful solvent on rubber
I was thinking the exact same thing. You don't want to use any kind of "belt dressing" either. The Acetone will dry out the rubber and the belt dressing will turn it into mush over time. I'd use a good dish detergent in a slightly high concentration to get the dirt off my belts. You could even safely "soak" them in a warm water/detergent mix for 5 minutes or so, then do the wiping exerciser. The rubber mats done the same way and they come out looking brand new.
I was surprised to see that he didn't at least put a drop of oil on the spindle. That should have been cleaned with the acetone, just like the platter drive pulley diameter. The eraser cleaning is always a good fix, works on computer electronics like pin edges of memory and cards.
Thank you very much this was very helpful, my stanton turntable had the same problem, I tried every single thing you put in and it didn't work, but then I sanded down the rca terminals and it finally worked.
Glad it helped
I had the same issue with the headshell contacts on my Audio-Technica LP-120USB when it was barely 3 years old...
Bit of headlight restoration cleaner and some elbow grease will take care of that hood ;-)
Always wondered why the tone arm return in the pioneer's wobbles it's way back to the stand, interested in what drives it underneath.
Good video ty.
@ nice spiral scratch player
Very nice video. Could you make a video about automatic return mechanism ? I have a Pl-117D does not start or return automatically. Thanks.
Excellent,I have an old Sony turntable .I 'll be saving this one. Thank you.
Did you ever find problem with sony tt? My 1980 ps-x55 lost left channel.
I have 1967 Magnavox console turntable and unfortunately the repair guy just installed a new cartridge and a needle and now I only hear sound from the right speaker. Any idea what it could be?
How would you recommend cleaning the stylus? I've seen people use Mr. Clean Magic Eraser...
I have a Pioneer VSX-321 and it doesn't have sound on central and sw channel (speakers are fine, tested). I left it in a box for 3 years and it was working fine at that point. What do you think the problem could be?
a really well made organised methodical and well explained video
Pretty much had the same issue bad stylus mine was but great fail finding video 👍
Acetone doesn’t hurt the rubber belt? What’s a good oil to use for the motor. Thanks
A lightweight machine oil. Get a zoomspout from a local appliance repair store. It has a very lightweight oil good for most small motors
Still missing the left channel : (
If you ever get to work on the tonearm a wireing on a Rega please make a video.
Great video. I used it to determine that I have a short in the right channel (ohm meter on the rca cable and ground). This wasn’t your problem so didn’t go into how to diagnose or solve this problem. Any guidance you can provide me?
Check the muting switch, disconnect the cables at the junction point and see if the short is in the cable or the turntable.
@@norcal715 thanks for the reply. I found it was in the cartridge. I thought I tested correctly, but apparently not.
"Just take those old records off the shelf"...........
My Pioneer PL-340 turntable has lost a channel...I'll follow you video and see if i can fix it.
Check the RC wire that hook up to the receiver? Wiggle them around! It solved my problem with having a vintage turntable!
what if my cartridge marks .640 komhs on both sides? its broken?
.640 K ohms is the same as 640 ohms, If both sides (right and left) are 640 ohms then it is a good cartridge
