I have a 5500 and same thing... lights only work on AM/FM. On the sansui X0X0 series the lamps are on a "plug" harness and you jumper the plug. The 3300 and 5500 everything is point soldered. Much harder to trace... the leads from the lamps dussappear into the belly of the beast.

Is there a guide to doing this procedure. On some brother sansui models it is as simple as jumpering the lamp main plug But I pulled the cab on the 5500 and there are no harnesses or plugs it is all point to point soldered.

Thank you. is that something that can be easily "undone"?

So I looked at it again last night. I looks like the auto return does not disengage once it has reached the point ( over the lead in of record) at which the steurpimple would engage and then bring it the rest of the way home to rest. Anyone?

hello all, I just got my first TT in 30yrs and it is a lab 300 with org cart and stylus. the Stylus does not "snapo" into place if I take the HS off and tip it down the stylus falls out! it is in VG+ condition :) I did notice the belt has a thin spot in it .... I assume from where it...

I recently got one of these as well. Flawless cosmetic condition. clean outside and started playing records, then it started warbling but in a very consistant cycle. I cleaned the belt track and checked for burrs on speed select/belt tracking arm, all good. Then I pulled the belt and slid it...
