The circlip on the selector follower is missing and the part is floating free in the chassis. Under the bonnet I can immediately see the reason for the declared fault. It’s cosmetically a bit rough as advertised. The arm looks to be in good condition and returns to it’s rest, unlike mine. Even though I had repaired the original, this one was in better condition. First thing I did was to swap the motors. Zero 100 donorĪs look would have it a Zero 100SB for “spares or repairs” came up on e-bay. There may be even more damage? I’ll soon find out. It’s just as well because I have since noticed that the arm was damaged in the fall. Before setting out on that repair, just in case the damage was terminal, I decided to hedge my bets and look out for a replacement motor or maybe a full turntable for spares. Fortunately I successfully repaired the Synchro lab motor.
The most obvious damage was to the motor. I had got it working and was about to re unite it with it’s plinth. My latest acquisition of a splendid vintage Garrard turntable has turned from a simple restoration to something of an epic job.
