Self grounding the turntable is not a good move -- at all.

Black ground should go to Earth “E”.

I bought Traktor scratch and was having issue in Traktor software. I was getting message saying Left input not working I dismantled my 1210 and done continuity test on left and right cables. I was getting continuity both ends. I put deck back together and applied switch spray to ends of phono leads. And also where I screw needle (stylus) in. That fixed my problem.

NEVER do the self grounding mod ! There is a reason why Technics did not self-ground the turntable !

can you tell why is that "self-grounding" needed? every phono preamp, built in mixers too, has an input for grounding, so wouldn't it be better to replace that cable too, not hiding it inside?

Thanks man. I have a Technics SL-1950, so not using mine the same way as you, but the wiring help here is a good thing for me. Thanks again!

Don't do this. You need a true ground cable to earth.

Thanks. Just replaced mine in my 25 year old decks

Mark, you did a great job of explaining how to do that! I need to do that to my vintage Kenwood KD 2000 turntable from the early 1970,s

Very helping. Thanks for the great video.

good stuff :)

Excellent video! Thanks

Without modding here on pcb, you can also make small incision on white RCA negative plug end - put the loose GND wire on white RCA negative near the plug.

Sooooo thankful you had this video. One of my turntables was only coming in on mono, no stereo. So I followed this video (ordered the proper RCA on eBay), changed out the RCA, and voila there was stereo! Never delete this video. Thank you thank you!

You need a chord less drill and some ‘snips’. You’ll enjoy your work more with better more efficient tools. Thank you.

Thanks bruh. Much appreciated. GREAT VIDEO

Omg please remove e this barbarian tutorial. How the hell can you put the ground wire with the audio. Jesus Christ...

Just not on ... you cannot use your ground wire as you did. You should retract this "fix" ....

I got here because I have ground sound on my Technics though mine is SL-235. I wonder why Technics didn''t do this internal grounding themselves?

Had to do this years ago with one of my decks. My friend offered to replace the RCA on the other one but I decided to not fix what wasn't broken. Now that other one is broken and your step-by-step walkthrough is just what I need to get it up and running again. Cheers!

Nice one!! Works a treat

Can you post a link of the wrap used? Will be very helpful!!!

how to unbalance and suffer ground loops in one quick video

I cant even watch this hes gonna upset me 🙈🙈🙈🙈

It’s pronounced R”oz”en core solder, like tge wizard! Not like the flower. FYI. LIKED YOUR VIDEO. GOOD JOB!

You made a mistake by joining the ground in the white (left) RCA. Some of professional mixer has a balanced inputs. This will cause unbalance in the input levels between left and right channels. It would be better if you join them both.

bad advice on shared ground.

NEVER use internal grounding - > www.technics-service.co.uk/app/download/15133899/Internal+Grounding+Info.pdf

those arnt grounds , they are neg signal wires . you risck worse hum if you unbalance these screened leads . always ground the turntable away from the signal . whos too lazy to attach the ground to their mixer anyway....

It was about time some one did this type of repair on You Tube.

So awesome bro, i'm gonna try it

did you know that you sound like a very good minimal vocal? :D think about doing professional

There is a reason why the Japanese built in an external Ground wire....

THANK YOU

Thanks. :-)

hey dude, any chance you know how to repair the mains power lead?

Hey will the same kind of rca part (with the board) work on a Technics SL D2?

Those aren’t grounds for L and R. They’re shields. There’s a difference. If this was the best way to ground the table, it would have come like this.

Thanks for the knowledge! Great vid! Music in the background sounded like old 70s adult films lol

Excellent video!

I just stripped my RCA cables and the red one has red and white.... same with the white and I have not seen that in any youtube videos. Do you know why is that? Thanks

awesome, just fixed my 1210 thanks to this

great tutorial, easy and straight forward, thanks loads!!

great video man thanks!!

I had humming noise getting from Dual Cs505-4 pretty old unit but still sounds great...now 😀completly removed rca cable bit of soldering plus new rca cable ...tadaaaa perfect sound again just like new no noise

Is there any circuit between rca cables and the tone arm cables? Or it's just a board to hold the connections together? thanks!

Great video, thank you!

to avoid damaging the circuit board connections and the wire you should tin the wire with solder before trying to solder it onto the board. too much heat or inexperience and you'll end up buying a new tonearm.

i done this to one of my turntables and it lost 50 pecent of the sound... help?
