I have the atlas turntable, I had to take the top section off to clean out some debris that was causing issues. now the two small silver contacts that provide power to the track have fallen out. Since the lower section is screw down and has tracks secured to it I cannot simply flip it over to marry the two. The problem is the little silver contacs keep falling out when I try to put it back together. Hasanyone else had this problem? any ideas?

Hi
I had the exact same problem you have. To fix this I put a dab of white lithium grease in between the top of turntable and the silver contacts. This helped them to stay in their place and it all worked fine afterwards.
Hope this was of help
Hi,
Helped a friend with the same problem... we used sticky stuff (just a bit) to hold 'em while upside down. Be sure to note that they are different lengths when you put 'em back.

I agree with each of the post responses above for holding the contacts in place. I have had the same situation previously and resolved it as mentioned. And youdo have to watch the contact lengths!
But I hope you don't have the issue I did when the retaining nut on the bottom plate falls free and the screw has nothing to grip to keep the plates together. In hindsight I probably should have added a tac of adhesive to hold that nut in place before installing! The turntable still works but has a bit of whobble since the plates are not secured. Gosh I hate to think of pulling it all up to fix the bottom nut!
