If your Toshiba TY-LP 200 Record Player turntable isn’t rotating once it turned on or if it’s producing audio that is either lower pitched or delayed, then this could mean that your record player’s belt is damaged. This guide will help you to disassemble the Toshiba TY-LP 200 Record Player and replace the belt of the player, thus fixing the problem. Before using the guide, inspect the record player disc as it may be damaged, thus resulting in unclear audio. Be sure to try and spin the turntable of the record player to confirm that the problem is indeed the belt as well. If the turntable rotates and it does not stop by itself, then the belt must be replaced. This guide does not require any prior knowledge and is perfectly safe for new fixers.

    • After placing the new belt, stretch the belt towards one of the indented areas on the back of the platter.

    • Locate the spool drive that is surrounded by three screws.

  6. jU3a2ZWvKrTRiHWZ
    • Once you have located the spool drive, place the stretched belt over it, and gently put back the platter into its original form, as shown in step 2.

    • If this step is done correctly, once the platter is spun, it will stop by itself.

Replacement belt size?

Along with this fix, I tried to clean a bit of dust and grime that's accumulated throughout the 3 decades. Some is not coming off with vacuuming or dry-wiping. Any advice on how to clean the unit up before reassembly? Mine is a gold Marantz with similar design and some of its parts are not as smooth as they should be. Thanks so much
