Thanks for the great cleaning tips, Good news, I got it going...turns
out the guy had a wire connector plugged into the counter plug instead
of up top on the arm for the needle.

The only thing its doing wierd is, after it plays a record (not
always) at the very end where there is about 3-4 seconds before it
reaches the end of the record and remove it to put back in the
carousel It emits a fairly loud low bass rumble which shakes the
cabinet, I've tried playing with the volume pot with no luck. Am I
correct in thinking this is the muting not working all the time? Could
I be looking at some chips or caps going bad in the amplifier ?     I
have the service manual but didn't see anything about this in the
troubleshooting.

Thanks,
Joe
