Hi everyone , and a Happy New Year to y'all .
I recently in a nostalgia moment bought myself an old Linn Axis Mk2 ... back in the early nineties this was my first good turntable before i moved onto a couple of LP12s ... but i loved my Axis for its simplicity , and it sounds great even now with a good DV MC cartridge left over from my last LP12 .
It works and runs fine , only issue is as soon as mains power is switched on the platter starts to run .... not a real problem , but i have just disassembled it to give to my father to replace all the capacitors on the board ... he knows what he's doing with soldering whereas im a bit of an novice
Can anyone point me in the direction of which component could cause this problem and it can be changed out at the same time .
I have read about it previously on tinternet but i just cant find it now i want it !!!
many thanks in advance
Ian
