Picked one of these up for 12$ at a thrift store. The belt was on the platter, it just slipped off the drive pully! Thank you so much for this video!

Same! Told it “didnt work”

Bro thank you- you saved me from having no clue what was wrong with my turntable 🙏

Thank you! I bought one of these turntables at a thrift store, and the belt was disconnected and so tangled that I looked for guidance to remedy the situation. The manual just said to consult with my dealer for this! I knew someone on KZread would have the answer, and yours worked perfectly.

thank you for your guidance and support on this one .

Thank you for making this video. I have the exact model turntable and just needed to know how the belt should be set up, after watching this I successfully got it working again. I hooked it up to my speaker bar and was able to listen to it.

So easy to follow and worked perfectly. Thank you.

Thank you! First of all I didn’t know I had a built in preamp but my ears were pricked when I found no spot for ground wire on my unit. I inadvertently (ok stupidly) knocked my turntable out of alignment which caused me to discover the belt (now fallen off). I then found your KZread tutorial and discovered a built in preamp!!! And you taught me that there is the preamp on off switch. I really appreciate the directness, no fussing around, approach to your video. Thanks to you I can “Get Down Tonight”!!! Much appreciated Justin.

Bought one at a thrift store, and thought I would have to invest money in it before i could sale. Belt was wrapped up inside and this video showed me how to fix it. Thanks!

Thank you. My belt came off and I forgot how to put it back on. 😂 It took me 2 minutes to put it back on because of this video.

Yeah I love making videos that are helpful when nobody does these kind of videos that are simple, instructional type things. So glad I got you back on track literally

Legend! Thanks for posting this, I had no idea how the belt went back on and there was a hidden amplifier switch under the turntable.

Thank you sir ,,, changing the Belt 👍🏽

You’re a lifesaver man thank you for this video 🤘🏻

Thank you! My belt came loose and I had no idea how to put it back! Thank you so much!

Thank you! Got one for free and the belt was hanging out. Had no idea how to or what to do with it lol THANK YOU!!

Thanks Justin. I have this exact model, but courtesy of an eviction (half a decade ago) and 3 subsequent moves to new places, the belt had come off on my record player (this exact model). Seeing how to fit / seat the belt correctly really helped me out! Also, the tip about the switch (EQ on/off) is really helpful! I have repaired a couple of amps, tape decks, walkmans, cd players, and a butt tonne of power tools over the years (ever since I was a kid, even) but I had NO idea this was an option on certain record players..! :) (That nugget of info could help out a friend of mine) Thanks so much! (And if anyone from your neck of the woods is watching; HIRE this guy. He knows his vintage audio :))

Thank you! Saved me $50!

This totally help me - THANK YOU!!

Thank you for posting, just what we needed! Liked and subscribed.

Thank goodness I found this

Good explanation, great video for someone who needs to replace the belt on this model of record player. But please! For the love of God, shoot your videos in landscape mode, not portrait. It helps a lot!

Good video, well presented

Gold!! thanks man!

Thank you !

I love how smooth your tone arm came down. I feel like mine kind of drops down a little harder. Is there a way to adjust that to be more smooth ?

Thank you so Much i🎉

Thank you sir!!

Question..someone gave me one of these. Belt was off. Reinstalled. But the linkage to the start and off button doesnt do squat. Took bottom cover off and i cant see where to connect them

Thank you!!!!

Thanks! :3

Hi Rocco, I can't get the plate out of the turntable, it doesn't come up in any way and it can't be seen that it has anything to bind, mi model is sony PS LX-100, It is identical to yours sony model

Wow, thank you Rocco!! I got the belt on after having to carefully unravel it from under the plastic wheels. Now my records are all mumbly sounding... Do I need to replace the belt? This turntable was in storage for 3 years. Before I buy a new belt is there something else I should try? Thanks,

take a clean q-tip with 90% rubbing alcohol and gently wipe and clean the needle see if that improves the sound of the record. the belts motor or bad belt would be the Sound Speed not maintaining or something like that where the voice is it would be too high or too low

Does anybody know what this round plastic thing is used for? It's on the bottom left of the turntable

Hey man I've got one of these and someone jacked up the three white screws on the bottom. The pitch was way off (fixed) But now the motor wont stop. How can I fix this?

sounds like one of those turn tables that have thought arm is not in the closed position the motor doesn't stop running? If that's the case the mechanism that disengages the motor is probably dirty or faulty. Try that and then comment back on the thread, we'll go from there

The motor won't work ? Unplug it, remove the rubber pad, firmly pull the platter up. Plug in. If you don't see parts moving , motor is dead as disco. The roller should spin

Yes, but how do you remove the turntable?

The little slots that are there if you put your fingers in there and pull upwards firmly it will come off it will feel like it's stuck but that's the only way to remove it

@@Midlifecrisismods Ah thanks, I did find out how to remove it later, but could not find this post to let you know! I did find a video where a screwdriver was used to pry the table off, while using a HAMMER on the centre spindle! I just pressed down on the spindle and pulled. It came off, but I now find I have TWO sets of adjustment holes underneath!

I want to share a life hack. In any case, these players cannot achieve a detonation of less than 0.08%. Therefore, if the belt has stretched and you do not have the opportunity to buy a new one, then cut off a piece of the belt with scissors (about 4-5 mm) and glue both ends of the belt “joint to joint” using cyanoacrylate glue. Works quite well and you won't have to worry about where to get a new belt.

LOL, the fondue is bubbling now, baby

Well I changed mine and it’s still running slow.. oh well it lasted 20 years

Thank you!
