Generally either a faulty connection to a lead or cartridge. Or a faulty Cartridge. If you switch the left and right channels of the phono leads the missing sound should move to the left and the right come to life. If it does not then there's a fault in the magnetic cartridge pre-amp in your amp.

SOURCE: turntable technics sl-bd27

You have 4 wires coming from the needle pickup to the cables which connect to the amplifier/receiver. I would check the needle, the pickup unit, and the leads from the pickup to the cables. You can probably run a continuity test or ohm test for verification. If that checks, pickup and needle is your next step.

SOURCE: Technics SL-L3 turntable no sound until warm up

either the cartridge is bad in the phonograph tone arm.  Or the pre-amp in the stereo is bad...remember that the turntable is the only accessory that uses the pre-amp input on the stereo.  I'm betting the pre-amp is bad.

Look around for a bad conection, perhaps inside the turntable.

SOURCE: Only one channel plays.

If you disconect the wires to the cartridge and with deck plugged in to the amp and switched on, you can touch the ends of the wires with your finger. Though there are four wires, only two should produce a buzz, one in the left, one in the right speakers. If you get a buzz in each channel, the rest of the unit is working fine and you have a faulty cartridge or a poor connection to it. If one channel remains dead, then you have a problem in the wires to your amp or an internal fault inside the deck. If internal I suggest you remove the bottom of the turntable and have a look around.

Technics sl ch570

pls. try switching the speakers, if the sound switch from left to right or right to left , one of your speakers has an open circuit. check the wire for any open link or check the speaker for an open voice coil.

Distorted sound on Technics SL-1200/1210

You could be getting acoustic feedback from the speakers to the TT's. Lower the volume or somehow isolate them from room sounds and vibrations.

Record only plays through one speaker

If it works on Channel One it is NOT the TT. It's a mixer problem. Define the mixer and what else works or doen't work. have you tried another device on Channel 2?

Technics 1310 turntable has left channel (white

There are just two causes, one is the preamp, which can be easily checked by putting the right channel jack in the left terminal. If the sound is normal, then it's likely that the cartridge in the deck is bad, or some wire is loose. However if the sound is still poor then the magnetic cartridge preamp in the amp has a fault. These are normally a single IC, which will have failed. Find the preamp by tracing the wires from the imput socket to the PC board, which may be alone.

Poor low frequency

Nope, the circuit boards have nothing to do with transmitting frequencies. There are only 4 items on the Technics 1200 that transmit frequencies...

1) Stylus/Needle
2) Cartridge
3) Tonearm
4) RCA Cables/Leads

If you've already replaced 3 and 4, the problem lies with either 1 or 2. Or the RCA cables you replaced were not done properly, or you used poor quality cables. Double check the work.
