I just picked up a Technics SL-BD35, and when I plugged it in, it immediately turned on. After removing the bottom cover, I noticed the Start/Stop rod is pushing the lever into the start position, almost as if the rod is too long.
The rod is properly seated in the button, but it seems to be preventing the mechanism from returning to the off position. The service manual shows the rod sitting in front of the lever and pushing it to start, but mine doesn't seem to have enough clearance to release.
I've searched online and looked through the service manual but haven't found much help. Has anyone run into this issue or have any ideas what might be causing it? Anyone with a photo of your own that I could reference? Thanks!
