Linear tracking turntable from the 1980's Tone arm stops moving after a very short distance
Try lifting up the turntable mat. You should see a hole. Note how it fits before removing the belt.

I think it's kind of cheap to ask someone to pay $10 for an answer to one question. Sheesh!
I haven't gotten the answer yet, but a local stereo store pointed me in the right direction. Thanks anyway.

It apears the lead wiring contact arrangement is typically generic. Green over Red and Blue over white. I searched Google by images and found the wiring arrangement in a detailed photograph of a Denon headpiece with cartridge installed.
So always remember to draw a diagram before disassembling something.

the may be a 'dead spot' on the motor, try to jump start it by spinning it with your fingers several times. it's a longshot but it might work

I am not particularly familiar with this model but if you have to have a disk on the turntable in order for it to run (a safety for stylus protection perhaps) why not just put on a disk and see? This feature would be a fairly complex one (photosensor perhaps) and I would not expect to see it on an inexpensive piece. Likely as not this has to do with a switch inside probably activated by a cam wheel (used in the raising of the arm at the end and returning the arm to rest) that is not set right. This cam or some link to it may have a problem which need to be addressed. All this I grant is speculation which would become clear if I saw the unit but unfortunately that is not an option. As to whether its a piece of junk, I wouldn't buy it unless I thought I could make it work. Paying any real amount of money to another to fix it makes little sense to me.
Please make 100% certain the needle is still in place... To test this *GENTLY* rub your fingertip over it and you should hear noise from the speakers when you do. If there is NO noise then there is likely no needle.
Did you put the protective device on the needle/arm for the move? Is it still on there?
Sorry Mate, that the only thing I've got to help....

Drive Belt
The chances are the rubber drive belt
has either broken or stretched so that it has fallen off the drive
pulleys.
You will need to gain access to the
underside of the turntable to replace it.
With most turntables the process will be
to secure the tone arm (a rubber band will do the trick) before turning the
whole thing upside down and unscrewing the base.
Replacement drive belts are easily
available on the internet. Search by make and model number of your turntable
