I was of the opinion that a permanent fault was easier to trace than an intermittent fault, so in one way you are going forward Ant.

I believe the original Dual turntable had some sort of connection between the arm, and the motor to make sure the motor would only run if the arm was in certain positions.

Was all that removed when you did the conversion ?

Stumbled across this EDS1000 thread on diyaudio - it links to circuit diagrams for two types of driver board for the beastie - for when you suddenly feel inspired to start checking it :D

Good Luck!
