Beogram 3000 (type 5228) tone arm won't drop

Hi everyone.  I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas on this one?  When you press the lift button, the solenoid that kicks the lever over doesn't engage....therefore the gear that turns to lower the tone arm doesn't move.  I don't have the schematic to know if the voltages I'm reading are correct, but I feel like it's getting voltage, but just not engaging. My thoughts are the solenoid is defective, but am not sure what voltage to try to inject into it to test it properly.

If anyone has any thoughts, parts or schematic that would be great.

 

Thanks,

Greg

I recently had the same issue with my Beogram 9000. I had to readjust the board the solenoid is on. That board has three micro switches on it, and they are probably a little out of adjustment causing the solenoid to not function properly. Hope this helps.

*Edit* Oops. Never mind, now I see the type 5228.
