I've seen several topics about this model box, but nothing that exactly matches my particular issue.
I've got my VZ-2000 in pretty close to good working order. Radio and tape, as well as aux in all work great. Phono behaves as it should up to a point (all buttons work as they should, turntable spins and records play. BUT...
it will play only until it reaches the absolute limit of the cartridge as it stays in one place (if I move the tone arm with the buttons, and set it back down on the record, it will continue on again until it runs out of range.)
Basically, then, everything is working great, except that the tone arm does not advance with the record.
