I had recapped the power supply, amp, and replaced the one cap on the regulator board but still the voltage was to low to the motor. Without the motor connected all the voltages on the regulator board are normal. As soon as the motor is connected all the voltages on the board are lowered. It drags the supply voltage down from 10V down to 4 to 6 volts. Only with the motor connected. I have cleaned and relubricated the changer and that is not the problem. The idler is in good condition. It is not slipping, it just cant supply the right current when I connect that motor. It is running it at 3.64 volts. 3.64 volts is correct, however,The motor is spec at 6 to 9.5 volts. The motor runs, but just barely touching it will make it stop. Any ideas, or anyone with a new motor I could buy?
Thanks

I have a Panasonic compact stereo where the phono was never used. It has a DC motor and regulator board. The regulator board has two separate pots marked 33-45 and is separate from the motor.
I'll check and see if the motor is the one you need.
