“How can I confirm the turntable is drawing power? I exchanged my first one (model PS-LX300USB) for a replacement of the same model because I could not get the first one's platter to spin. I tried all the basic troubleshooting techniques (different outlets, repeating the assembly instructions, etc.) on both, but the replacement suffers the same symptom. This makes me think it's user error, but for the life of me I can't tell what I am doing wrong. Are there any lights on the unit that could confirm it is getting power? What are the simplest steps I can take to get the turntable to spin? What conditions need to be met so that the turntable will spin? I am eager to use this to start converting my LP's to audio files, so this is a frustrating roadblock, especially if indeed it is just user error.”

Are you sure that you placed the turntable band on correct post?
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The above answer did it for me! I had not looped the drive belt around the *notched* pulley. I had been looping it around the other small cylinder on the right side. So now I also know that it is drawing power when that small, gold, notched pulley is spinning.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.There are no Indicators on the Turntable to indicate that it is getting power. Please follow the troubleshooting steps mentioned in the following article to check the reason for the platter not spinning. http://www.kb.sony.com/selfservice/documentLink.do?externalId=C89608
