Right Phono cable broken on my 1210..

[GoldnSilver]

This is seriously annoying, I got a second hand Technic 1210 at a good price, now I know why, the right cable just broke on me, halfway through Heavyweight it went out, and its definitley not my speakers or amp. It's the turntable.. Whats the options? Can I replace them? Fix them? Maybe even split the remaining one into 2 signals or would that be dodgy? Please, someone help. Thanks.

if you know how to solder its a easy fix. theres plenty of tutorial vids on youtube to help you in the process aswell.

^^ this. does look straight forward. i saw a good'n that showed you how to earth it through the phono cable as well.

Hmm Solder, dont have a clue.. I mean, I know what it is but fuck..
EDIT: Wtf, now its working again.. this is seriously messed up, probably a loose connection.. I hope it was a one off.. doubt it though. Thanks guys!

If it's off and on then would deffinatly get it sorted mate, if you really don't want to solder it (i know i wouldnt im useless at stuff like that) then you can get them repaired, but of course that means money!

I'm from Manchester, if it really comes to it I can get my Uncle to do it, but otherwise, I'll see..

right ive got the exact same problem and am shit with soldering. i reckon i would do more damage than fix anything. any help would be greatly appreciated.

i would just take it to a technics cetified service centre, it'll cost abit but they will do a thorough job and get em running well

This has happened to both of my 1210s after 14 years of getting battered. I'm going to buy a couple of phono leads and a couple of pitch faders while I'm at it and fix it myself.
