I just purchased a sl -bd22 and when connected to my receiver i only get a faint sound. I've looked through the manual and found nothing in the troubleshooting guide. I've verified that the connections are all correct including the ground. The stylus looks good. where should i look next?

A grounding wire is just a piece of wire connected to an earth point on the deck, connecting to an earth point say on a radiator pipe. There's nothing special about this wire any old piece will do. You only need it if you get a hum noise when the turntable is connected to the amp.
Just purchased a belt for my SL-BD22 from Vintage Audo (Audio?). The belt size is 23.6 X .180 X .025 inches. Their part number for this belt is:B00926DJ74. Hope this helps.
presuming it has "some" effect, then gnd wire itself it good. Even though there may be a gnd thumbscrew on the preamp try slipping the ground wire under a screw on the main amp or receiver that screws into metal and make sure the gnd wire is touching metal under the screw.
if that didn't help, then you may have:
>a cartridge with an open gnd internally.
>an open gnd wire from the back of the cartridge to the outer shields of the RCA connectors.
>or your neutral & hot wires of your house wiring might be reversed causing something weird.
>a low quality preamp. (it should have a seperate wall adaptor so that only low voltage dc goes near the preamp)
good luck ground issues can be tough!
