Technics 1200MKII Dimming Lamps
The red strobe and pop-up lamp are slightly dim at all times. (about
25% dimmer than my other 1200 which was recently serviced). Most features of the deck work fine, but when the speed is changed, or pitch adjusted, or the 'start/stop' button is pressed, these two lamps dim more than 50% for about 1 second. Why is this happening? Should I reserve a plot in the SL1200 Cemetery, or can preventive maintenence be done? Any advice is very appreciated. Regards, -John in NYC |

What may be needed is a repair of the faulty circuitry and replacement of failed components...... More than likely there are power supply faults and/or worn microswitches that are causing the symptoms that you reported. At the very least you might TAKE your fine 1200MKII to a service shop for a repair cost estimate so you can make an intelligent repair decision with facts. -- Best Regards, Daniel Sofie Electronics Supply & Repair - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - "JMNYC" wrote in message The red strobe and pop-up lamp are slightly dim at all times.
