Default Re: HMV Mono Record Player Problem

Please do not attempt to power this machine up again.

It would be helpfull to have a model number for the record player.

Are you competent at repairing this type of equipment? If so, with a model number, we'll help you to get back to working normally.

From your description of the sequence of events, I'd guess that the record player has a valve amplifier, in which case a number of capacitors will need replacing at the very least.

Unless you are familiar with electronics and how to repair them or are willing to learn, do not attempt to repair it

I would suggest that if there are any members in Ireland who could help they contact you via the PM (Private Message) system.

Alternatively if you visit parts of mainland Britain, let us know and hopefully a member local to where you are visiting can help you out.
