Califone 1875 model amp seems to have quit turn table works fine no sound from mic or turntable
Ask them what the part is they can't get and report it back here. Fixya experts like myself sometimes can track them down.

It seems something may have come loose over time or history, but you will have to delve inside to see what it is. It sounds as though the fault should be obvious.
If you do not want to do this, a repair shop should have no problem. I assume that the deck is working ok otherwise.

Probably a bad relay switch. Open up the turntable. Identify the motor that spins the table. Follow the wires of that motor to, perhaps, some type of little circuit board with a relay. I have a Backley-Cardy 322-487 classroom phonograph which uses a Califone 1620 amp and a BSR turntable. To get the table to spin, you have to move the tone arm. Mine doesn't move and I'm in the process of replacing the faulty relay that is the problem.

Check to make sure that your voltage setting is set correctly. Look
under the turntable platter. You'll see a voltage selector. Make sure
it's properly set for your area (115V or 220V).
If this does not solve the problem, or you have a turntable that does not have the voltage setting feature, then you might
have a faulty turntable drive issue or an issue with the power, which means something is wrong on
the main board (located underneath the turntable platter).

Likely to be a worn, old and slack belt - if it's a belt drive deck.
Lift rubber platen matt and you'll likely find access to the belt between motor hub and platen which should lift off or a retaining clip will have to be removed first if there is one (of course!)
Remove belt and find it's circumfrence size.
Then check out belt suppliers online and find one with your size belt at a fair price.
When it arrives pop it on by reverse method of how you removed it.
All should then be well.
While the platen is removed take the opportunity to clean it's spindle and squirt in a few - very few - drops of light machine oil or spray but not bike oil into the spindle well.
Check there's nice quiet and hyper responsive movement to a finger tip touch by the platen, don't spin it fast ever.
your needle has worn down, or the RCA leads(red & white) arn't plugged in to the phono socket on the amp,or you haven't selected phono on the source select,or you have the tape monitor button switched on.
