turntable spins at 45 but not 33 - any clues?



I am looking at a Thorens td110 (not the best thorens model
I realize). Anyway, it spins fine at 45 rpm, but doesn't
spin at all at 33rpm.

What is likely to be the problem? Will a general servicing
fix this or will I need to find rare and obscure replacement
parts?

Yes, on some tables you have to lift the platter and move the belt manually to another groove either under the platter, or on the motor.

If your table has a switch on top, maybe it is stuck or broken, but you may be able to move it manually anyway.
