Hi all, joining the forum as I have a repair question about my new Lenco turntable. If I am in the wrong section, feel free to correct me.
I was recently given a lightly used Lenco L3807 Direct Drive Turntable by my Grandma, who was given it as a present shortly after it was purchased new in May 2012. It was working perfectly up until about 3 years ago, when the platter stopped turning by itself. Since then it has been in storage, and I recently dug it out again in hope of repairing it.
I took the motor cover underneath the platter off to reveal the direct drive motor. Removing the shaft revealed the 6 coils underneath which drive the motor, but i noticed 2 had come un-stuck from the board and their contacts had come loose. I glued the 2 coils back in place and re soldered their contacts, but the motor still didn't turn. I also tried measuring the voltage across the coils, but i cant seem to get any voltage reading. Whether that has something to do with the issue, i'm not sure.
Attached is some photos of the turntable. I'm pretty sure it has life in it yet at just 9 years of age with barley any use.
I have intermediate electrical skills and am confident in my own repairs.
Any help will be very much appreciated!
