Stylus light on my Technics..

I've got a set of SL-1200MK5's. One one of them, the sylus light acts like theres no resistance when it comes up. So, for example, when it's reccessed and I press it, it just hops up like a spring, instead of going slowly and smoothly. When I push it in, theres almost no resistance either, not like the resistance on my other deck.

The light works fine, it's just that it feels like theres something going on internally that's wrong with it.

Can anyone give me a hand here? I dont mind messing with it to get it working again.

add some lube to the one with the friction. you'll have a matching pair.

Does it matter?

You're supposed to sync the record, not the pop up lights

Yeah, but it's still kind of weird having one do it and not the other :P
