Alright, so i was about to play a record on my record player(a Sony PS‑LX300USB) but apparently i pressed the start button with a little bit too much enthusiasm.

and basically the button got stuck in and it won't start playing the record anymore(stuck in a loop).

I't a loose plastic button that uses a spring. i managed to pull it out, but just putting it back into its regular position doesn't fix it.

I've already lifted the turn table itself to see if there was an obvious way to access the area of the button and i couldn't find one.

I've attached a picture of the button

Any suggestions for fixing it? am i gonna need to take it somewhere?

get a new button and solder it in place of the other one, sounds like you broke the switch to me

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

So should I just tear the one that's in there out?
