(Because mine does that). Or is it completely silent? My problem: How strange! My record player does the same thing. This happened because I accidently dropped the needle on the record player (fingers slipped on the grip). But yes, my sound does the same thing, it's fine when it's on radio but when I try to play a record sound only comes out of one speaker. I don't think it's the turn table because there wasn't any major pressure put on to it. But my guess would be the needle. (I've tried sticking a penny on the head (with tape) but that doesn't work.)

The turntable seems to be working fine, and when I play digital music through the stereo, both speakers work; but then when I use the turntable, one of the speakers mutes sometimes! So I'm baffled; it doesn't seem like it's the speakers, but I don't see how it could be the turntable. Hopefully someone can help us out!

Unplug the stereo. Pull the volume knob off. Carefully use the straw that came with the spray to spray the cleaner down the control shaft, while turning the volume control all the way up and down several times. Replace the volume knob.
