Grundig PS2000 Turntable arm jamming at end of record

If you find a record plays fine, but at the end when it reaches the run off groove it lifts up from the record as you'd expect, but then tries to go to the centre of the record (rather than back to its home position) and makes a bad mechanical noise, check the black plastic part in the attached pictures is located correctly.
In the first picture it's in the wrong position, and the second it's in the correct position. It's easy to reach and reseat.

This may apply to other turntables of a similar design as well.
