Hi there! 

I am restoring an BeoGram 1203. It will only play sound in the left speaker. I have checked that the connections is soldered correctly to the "motherboard" so the issue must be in the tonearm.

Is there a guide on how to dissesamble the tonearm and resolder the connections?

Thanks,

Christian

Take off the pickup and check resistance from the 4 pins to wire solder points, if ok check your pickup

Hi Søren,

I should have mentioned that i have tried with 2 different pickups, and checked the connection from the DIN to the "motherboard".

I will try your suggestion and return. Thank you.

Do the checks with the deck in PLAY mode to avoid the muting contact shorting everything.
