Yes please. I look forward to your answer.......A bit more detail. As the turntable and the record turn its like a seesaw down at the arm higher at the opposite side. Every minute or so there's a loud click. What's more the speed does not seem to stay as set. So musically it;s a bust. Let's not give up! Cheers,XXXXX XXXXX (XXXXX@XXXXXX.XXX)

Hi, my name is XXXXX XXXXX will be assisting you today. I am a Master Technician that's dedicated to giving you the best Answer possible.

If you are new to the site, this is briefly how it works:

1. We will go back and forth exchanging information (if needed) about your problem until we're finished.
2. I will only give you the best possible Answer for your problem without the ability of actually being present with you.
3. Understand that I am a real hands on Master Technician and fix these issues everyday in my shop in FL.
4. Remember to leave a Positive Rating after we're finished to compensate me for my time just like you would at a repair shop.

* Favorable outcomes are always desired, but are sometimes out of both of our control.

There's really not much to these Crosley's. Look to make sure that the Record bed isn't warped. I see that cause the most problems with the arm moving up and down way more than it should. As for the speed, there should belt that drive's the Turntable and those can wear out causing fluxuations in the speed or the motor is getting weak. Let me know what you find.
