Re: Dansette Viva
Hi, take care with this rp, you must ensure the chassis is not connected to the “live” side of the Mains, it does not have a Mains transformer fitted.
When you switch it on can you hear any noise from the loudspeaker, such as when you rotate the volume control? If you can try touching the leads from the pickup, if you get a buzz the cartridge is probably faulty.
If you do not hear an noise from the loudspeaker you may have amplifier problem.
You will then need to get your test meter out and do some checks. Do you have the circuit diagram?
For the record deck look at some of the links which provides lots of info on decks.
Hope this helps you to make a start, remember to take care.
Cheers
John
