It's possible that the wires that connect the cartridge where the stylus fits are loose or broken off. With it set to the deck, have the amp on. Lift up the arm and touch the wire connections to the cartridge. You should hear a buzz on each of the channels depending on which wires you touch. You can also disconnect the wires from the cartridge and carry out the same test. On one wire it will buzz on the right, on the other on the left. The two other wires are earths and will cause only a slight buzz or nothing at all. This test proves the pre-amp inside the amp is working. If the wires are connected properly to the right connections on the cartridge, you should hear sound. If the connections are good and the sound poor or absent you need a new cartridge.

I would suggest that you look at the MUSONIC web-site. They specialise in cartridges and styli and will answer any questions by e-mail.
SOURCE: No sound coming from turntable
most likely this is the switch that selects among cd/tape/radio/record player. it could be the preamp circuitry in the player as well. it would not be the cartridge UNLESS you cannot see a little rubber 'seat' up inside underneath the cartridge that pushes the stylus tip out and down towards the record just a bit. if this rubber 'yoke' (seat) is missing you will get no sound even when you touch the needle tip when the record player section is selected.

you have unscrewed the suspension screw?
also check the needle for dirt and dust... try blue tacking a 5p coin to the top on the needle to give it a little more weight, if the needle stays in place then the arm balance if off, and unless there is a mechanism to adjust that on this turntable then i guess its a return!
SOURCE: Crosley Record Player Stopped Spinning...
I had this same problem with my Crosley 704 and it bamboozled me to no end.
After digging around I dug up the manual online (I bought mine used so I didn't have one to consult). It turns out the record stops when it gets to the end, and to get it spinning again you have to lift up the tone arm and move it right (past the holding latch) until it clicks, and voila, it starts spinning again, ready for a new record.
You'd think that they coulda made it more obvious :(
