Smile Re: Garrard motor

Hi,
I have a Garrard RC80 autochanger.
The motor would run fine from cold, but then it began buzzing and getting hot after a time.
I found that one of the coils was going dead short when it warmed up.
Fortunately, I was able to strip it down and send the two coils off to Ed Dinning to be rewound. He did a splendid job, and it runs lovely now.
Thanks Ed!
Cheers, Pete.
