Re: Philips AG1003
I must say that these decks are not at all easy to repair. You are going to need to remove it from the record player and check that the linkages from the underside of the push buttons are actuating. There's an underside photo to help you on "Radio Museum" site. Also a Service Manual can be downloaded free from "Vinyl Engine". Be aware, these auto-changers are nearly 65 years old now and if you were able to find another, it may be just as bad.

Hi Edward, thanks very much just as i thought . I suppose the only thing to do is put a newer deck in shame.

Re: Philips AG1003
Could you not at least have a look and see if you can get the original functioning first? I mean, if you're planning to replace it outright anyway you can't make things any worse by trying & you might just get it working with a little patience and lubrication.
