Introduction
Go to step 1 ↓This is a brief guide for replacing the Speed PCB Assembly on AT-LPW50 Series turntables.
Replacing the Speed PCB Assembly may resolve issues where the turntable does not respond properly to changes in speed, or where the platter does not stop rotating while the speed selector dial is being adjusted.
The replacement Speed PCB Assembly can be purchased directly from the Audio-Technica Parts Department using the following part number:

- First and last name

Parts orders through this department are available within the United States and Canada only. If you are located outside of the U.S. or Canada, please contact your local Audio-Technica branch for parts availability and assistance.
