Great fix! Thank you for posting! Used it for the L-A120 as well. Very similar. Only difference I noticed is that there's not a ground on the screw. I was able to get it apart without removing the cartridge, although that could be risky without a protector. One additional note, there isn't a bearing, that's a bushing style design.

Hey TG, I was pleased to find your video. In attempting to set up this model table for family I found the spindle was seized, not even possible to rotate by hand. Your simple instructions worked perfectly, with two exceptions. I could not slide the plastic gear fully back onto the base of the spindle so used a 1/2" socket to apply even pressure all the way around while tapping lightly with a hammer. I wanted to be certain to slide it straight on. Also the four feet on this one had rubber surrounds over the springs. One of those was a thinner rubber and had split. That foot required more care in reinstalling. Now all working well, so thanks.

What a great video I totally appreciate you sharing this information. Bought an L-A120 with a seized stiff bearing so I will be in the process of getting it running following your tips. I had removed the cover where the tone arm sits so I hope I didn't screw things up there this was before watching your video. Anyhow thank you again and thanks for sharing great job.

Exactly what I needed to know. Thanks. ( Mine has been sitting in a barn or garage for 30 years )

Thanks a lot. It was completely seized. What type of oil you used?

How did you unplug the power cable?

Power cable on these is a small white 3 pin connector to the circuit board (which you couldn't see in the shots) If you disconnect this one make a note of which way round it goes !!

Thanks! I just fixed my grandma's JVC L-A100, probably not used since the 90's, the bearing was stuck. Now i'm waiting for a JVC amplifier, a new belt and needle. :) Did JVC build any good small speakers?

I don't think JVC was really known for their speakers.

Thanks for posting this, it's exactly what I needed as I have this same turntable with a stiff bearing. I bought mine second hand in 1991 so I've no idea how old it actually is. Do you know when this model was produced?

Exact year, no. But, definitely the early 1980s.

I don't quite understand why grease was used in the first place as a drop of oil seems to work better. Maybe this would require regular oiling which would be impractical?

@@georgespeed3061 It's an open bearing unlike some tables that have a bearing pit where the oil stays in place. Gravity will eventually pull the oil out the bottom on this one. You have to give it a couple drops every now and then to keep it lubricated.
