The self-lubricating bushing in the turn-table is dried out. This is a difficult problem to solve and best left to an expert. Don't expect great results.

Hi, most likely the auto function needs resetting. With the power off turn the platter manually clockwise a dozen or so times. Power up and play. Cheers john.
If it is a turnatable that starts spining when the arm is moved to the record, then more than likely the start/stop switch inside the turnable is broken and is fixed in the on position. Or the leaver mechanism has become detached from the arm when the record was playing and left the other part pressing on the same switch that turns the motor on or off. Removing the bottom of the turntable should should show the trouble.
I came across your post, autumlite; that's interesting! I have a few steps for you to follow to get that taken care of so you can start enjoying the convenience:
Address To Other Equipment Using Power Scan
Remote: All Remotes (except Basic)
With the desired equipment on, press and hold the correct Mode button until
all mode button backlights illuminate, then release.
Press and release the Power button.
AUX Mode: Before pressing and releasing the Power button
Press 0 for a TV
Press 1 for a VCR/DVD
Press 2 for any other device
Then Press STAR (*)
Press the Up button once a second while pointing the remote at the desired
equipment.
Note: If the code for the equipment comes up, the equipment
will power off.
Press the POUND (#) button.
Note: If the code entered is
valid for the remote, the mode light flashes three times.
Hope that helps and let me know if you need any further assistance!
One of the buttons has got stuck, so when you press the button you want to, its not getting the message to start / stop playing. This is also why the eject won't work. Either a new button, or replacement board would make it happen for you :)
Since it's Direct Drive there's no belt to fall off. There is an electronic brake.
Could your problem have something to do with the Reverse function? Check the L.E.D. Perhaps cycling it will help.
USING THE REVERSE BUTTON:
1. Press the REVERSE (17) button to reverse the rotation of the
PLATTER (2) (the REVERSE LED (17A) will light while in reverse
mode). Press the REVERSE BUTTON a second time to return to
normal play.
did you ever open the turntable. It sounds like the on/off switch is bad. Remove the platter and screws with a phillips screw driver and just make sure the connections are in place. make sure you disconnect the power first. let me know what happens afterwards.
