Hi,
I'm trying to figure out why this Beogram 6006 won't start as it should.
I recaped the main board (some caps were out of specs as usual).
Carbon resistors were checked as well. I then did a first test and here's what happens:
After pressing Start, the optical arm lights up (cleaned the sensor) and the platter spins correctly and 33.33 shows on the display.
The linear arm moves at correct speed towards the platter but will stop after only for 3/4" (about 2cm) and then go back to stand-by position at lower speed, as if the record ended.
I checked the arm motion for possible mechanical blockings by spinning the feedscrew manually, but I found no problem. Also, there is enough belt tension between the motor and the feedscrew.
Anybody has an idea of what's going on ? The service manuals can be found here.
Thanks.
