Any information on where exactly this function performs on the physical deck drive, I’ve worked on quite a few nation Panasonic units...belt replacements/ motor replacements, basic stuff...re wire soder etc...anyhow both units are simple to access deck drive. I do not know where the auto stop functionality or what I need to look for to correct this. Otherwise of course your motor/power will not seize/cut off...which is not ideal of course...
