I have a technics and it was running slow, so i attempted to adjust the potentiometers underneath the motor (accessable via the 2 holes) with a small screwdriver. I think i bumped them and the sliding part came off and i dont know how to put humpty-dumpty back together again! I'm pretty sure this is the same on all Technics tables.

the photos show the pieces and the mounts which they go on.

please tell me if these can be fixed, or how i would go about ordering new ones.

please help!
thanks

.

The metal has fatigued and isn't worth repairing since it will only fail again. Replace the pots with new pieces.

I think it is a 150k pot there, just go to ratshack and gather up new items.
Mind where the sweep connects to, the other 2 leads do not matter.

Stuf ain't supposed to fall apart...sucks.

Look for Alps pots if available, I like their parts.

Good Luck!
