Julian,
I have a Danish language copy of the service manual for the system.
Schematic seems to be complete; you should be able to figure out everything
from that.

I can send it to you if your gmail address is capable of accepting
attachments. If not, send me another address that does and I'll send it to
you.

However, the turntable never spins, the "Start" button has no effect.
I think this is because I am not providing the correct signals on the
pins marked "SYNC", "AF" and "STP" (shown on the main unit schematic).

Finally, pin 26 also looks like an output, some sort of current source
from Q221?

Pretty sure that pin 26 is just digital; IC152 (CPU?) outputs a signal,
IC151 inverts it, and Q221 inverts it again.

I'm at the limit of my expertise with this - can anyone suggest how to
connect pins 24,25,26?

My guess: Let 25 and 26 float.

Ground pin 24 to power supply ground in an easily-disconnectible way,
and press the "Start" button on the turntable. If nothing happens right
away, disconnect pin 24 from ground.

If grounding pin 24 didn't do anything, connect it to +12 V in an
easily-disconnectible way, and press the "Start" button on the
turntable. If nothing happens right away, disconnect pin 24 from
+12 V.

Any ideas about what "SYNC", "AF", and "STP" might mean in this
context?

I bet "STP" means "Stop". On the receiver schematic, it seems to be a
diode-OR of three things, one of which is labeled "TUNER" on IC702.
The receiver may have used this to stop the turntable when some other
source (tuner, tape) was selected. My guess is that this would have
shown up on pin 24 of J106 at the turntable.

"SYNC" may be a way for the turntable to tell the receiver that it was
ready to go, so the receiver could unmute, start a tape deck, or
something like that. On the receiver schematic, the "SYNC" line goes
(among other places) into the "muting" block, through diode D7B3. My
guess is that this is either pin 25 or 26 on the turntable.

"AF" I'm not sure of. On the receiver, it goes to "A in PLAYER" on
IC702, and also seems to be an input to a diode-OR. It may tell the
receiver that the turntable is present and on, whether or not a record
is currently playing. My guess is that this is either pin 26 or 25 on
the turntable - whichever one SYNC isn't.

Hi Dave,

I'd be most grateful for a copy of the service manual. What I already have is an extract from it with just the schematics. My email address can indeed accept attachments.

Thanks!
Julian
