VPI HW19MKIV huming motor


I'm hopefull somebody knows whats going on with my table.
My SDS is putting out the usual 72VAC 60Hz. But my table won't turn. When I touch the table spindle I can feel it vibrating but will not turn. Is it dead or dying?
Thanks much for the help, Riqe

Mine did the same thing. First plug the motor directly into the wall to make sure it is the SDS and not the motor. Then cycle the SDS on & off a couple of times and see if you can get the table to run at 45rpm. Mine eventually started to work again after going up & down with the voltage & frequency. I use the on/off switch on the turntable and always give the clamp a little turn to get the momentum going, have not had a problem since.
