fixing my technics

hello all...well i purchased a set of used technics. it there is an issue on the one table where the 33 button does not work anymore. it does not respond back..almost as if you were to take the spring out from a key on your keyboard. does anyone know where i could fix this and if it will cost a lot? thanks in advance.

no replies....a better explanation of my problem is it's just stuck...maybe soda or something was spilled on it...anyway, if i were to take these appart to see if i can loosen up the rpm button...am i taking a big chance? ... like springs or other parts that are tough to put back in place or set?

I'm afraid you're gonna have to use your screwdriver and open up to fix your problem. It's prolly something mechanical...

right...i think the button is just stuck and needs to be popped from the bottom. this requires me to open up the turntable...i just wanna make sure that by opening it up i will cause problems. i don't plan on touching any of the belts, motor etc....just that button

While you have them open- change all the leds to blue

i checked out the disassembly guide last night, and it seems a little vague on some steps. I believe the first picture shows the black plastic that's under the tone arm. It doesn't say how to correctly remove the tone arm. I see some scrrews, but I'm not sure which one's are to come off. Anybody do this before? Have an idea of how to correctly do so? Or know of a more detailed guide?

You shouldnt need to remove the tone arm.

Everything for your needs is accesible by removing the bottom cover

Yea there is no reason to remove the tonearm when dealing with the pitch selector switches. Complete opposite ends of the table.
