What company manufacturers the motor for vestax pdx 2000 turntable does any body know or if there is an after market available or original

It is possible that the deck that feels loose is not properly secured to the turntable. You may want to try tightening the screws or bolts that hold the deck in place. If this does not fix the issue, there may be a problem with the bearings or the motor of the turntable. It is best to consult a technician or the manufacturer for further assistance.

I think this is a direct drive turntable and there is something wrong with the motor drive circuit.

i have the same problem with two vestax parts, which of one is round so sprayglue and three turns around it with thin koper cable.and after that sandpapered itagain and another layer glue, but i had no choice... the part ain't available en a couple of days ago my backside of a pdx 2000 spantanious broke of, but carbon wil hopefully fix it. You need to know of which plastic it's made and get the right glue, but you nee some glassfibre orso also on the inside , or it will brake

Hello
The fault is to its motor control circuit board. Mechanism alingment also should be checked. contact any expereinced service technician to rectify this problem.

sliight wobble is normal but if its something you notice i suggest sending it to them to fix it

Hi ezradf ,

i am afraid no it will not fit, the PDX-2300 mk 1 has a bigger fitting then the Mk 2.

Is there a speed control switch? UNPLUG and try spraying contact cleaner into the speed control. IF that doesn't solve it, then back to the manufacturer.

I'd be checking the weight and height settings of the tonearm. Heres a link to the manual for the deck. There's instructions in there about how to setup up the tonearm properly. Don't be afraid to experiment with it. Just remember, too much weight will wear out your vinyl really quickly. Not enough weight will sound like **** and skip easily. Have fun!

Hi Misskit , i have a Dual turntable straight arm [Dual is the brand ] maybe you could visit their website and see if there is something similar to yours that you could get some specs from , i think they are still in business they are a German turntable manufacturer . happy spinning

The platter needs a drop of oil as the platter and motor shaft is a machined fit, Via brass upside down v as the platter will be reversed ie: a A WITH NO LINE . You can place two plastic wedge shaped blocks ,one on each side of the platter with even pressure and work up.
