   If one of the micro switches is faulty the motor will run further than   
   it's normal range and get stuck there until you turn it out again by   
   hand.  I *think* it's one of the switches in the front of the moving   
   mech.  One that a selected record pin is tripped with.  Some of them are   
   tough.  You are very lucky if you can find a new switch.  Like most   
   people, I take the switch apart and rebuild it.  Careful not to loose   
   any tiny flying parts, open it up inside a box that may catch a flying   
   spring.   
      
   I suppose I should mention these switches could be out of adjustment.   
   I've never had one with that problem that didn't need the switch   
   rebuilt.  An adjustment may make it work for a short while, but usually   
   not for long.
