Availability - Parts availability is limited for early 78 rpm and two speed models. Better for products built after 1950 and best for products built after 1960. Some cosmetic parts may not be available. - We don’t have a lot of V-M stock of older “tube era” transformers, speakers, and we have no grill cloth. See the Amplifier and Speaker FAQs section for recommendations on these items. Motors Most V-M changers were made with motors from the two major motor manufacturers, Alliance Mfg and General Industries (GI). - If you need a replacement motor or other motor assembly part, we may ask for more information as a single model changer could contain either motor. There should be a four or five digit V-M part number located on the motor winding, stator or motor basket. If not, we need to know if you have an Alliance or GI motor at the minimum. Click on Phono Motor Identification for pictures and more information. Some motors are in short supply and a replacement may not be needed. First, try to lubricate the motor. See the motor rebuild question Q5-3 on the Record Changer and Phono FAQs page for more information.
