| I dunno if this is still the case but you used to be able to mail order spare parts from Technics/Panasonic
Used to work in a radio station and when some fat fucker sat on one of the decks and bent the arm, we ordered a replacement arm from technics.
If you can get a spare pitch control from them and you're reasonably handy with a soldering iron it should be fairly easy to change.
Before you take to your deck with a soldering iron or send it to be repaired at great cost, have you tried cleaning the pitch control? Like sirius points out it's just a variable resistor and is exactly the same as a fader on a mixer... It could be worth getting some switch cleaner or servisol and cleaning it like you would your crossfader. Unfortunately though they do wear down after a while so it could be that it needs replacing, usually the problem is around zero pitch on the mk 2's with the dip at zero. |
