My Dual CS430 auto return turntable suddenly lost power and stopped playing. Can you help with servicing or repair, please?

Amplifiers always take the sound of the turntable via a separate pre-amp from all other systems, such as radio and CD players. This pre-amp can go faulty killing the sound from the turntable only. If the turntable goes through the actions of playing the record, then this is the cause of your trouble.

You has DC Offset(a damaged amplifier) This is most definitely not a DIY type of repair. If you're interested in a repair, or have further questions, please visit my website at audioserviceclinic.com. Thank you.

Some turntables do not return the arm to the rest. However if it did so previous then something could have broken or become out of place underneath the turntable. The only way to check is look under the turntable by removing the base and looking for signs of damage.

Hi Lisa, its a bit of a long shot however try this. With the turntable powered of manually rotate the platter approx 12 times to reset the auto operation back to default. John styluscity.com

Hi, I;m not familiar with that exact model however the problem you are describing is commonly caused by the automatic operation at some point not being allowed to complete its full operation. Ie the tonearm has been returned manually to its rest position before reaching the end of the record. Try this. With the player not powered up lift the tonearm across to the record run off groove and sit it there. You may feel some resistance which is normal as the mech has to eswt itself. Now turn on the power and turntable. The arm should automatically return from there to its rest. Try auto operation after that. Let me know how you go. Cheers John. [email protected]

HELLO

Go to AudioKarma.org on the web and I'm sure the guys on there will help you out - but you will have to register to post!

Hope this helps you!

There should be some kind of screw on the arm to adjust it. You might have to experiment, or get a service manual. When adjusting, try doing it without the platter powered, by hand movement only.

Your traverse assembly is damaged, and will need to be replaced. Although self-repair is not recommended, you can buy the part and bring it with you to a service center for replacement.
