First of all remove the wires to the cartridge. With the amp on, touch each of the wires to the cartridge with your finger. one at a time. On one you should hear a loud buzz on the left and on another a loud buzz on the right.
If you get no loud buzz on the left. There is something wrong with either the connections between the deck, or the pre-amp of the amplifier. This will not effect any other function on the amp such as tape or cd.
If you do get a loud buzz on the left, check the cartridge connection or replace the cartridge.

You have 4 wires coming from the needle pickup to the cables which connect to the amplifier/receiver. I would check the needle, the pickup unit, and the leads from the pickup to the cables. You can probably run a continuity test or ohm test for verification. If that checks, pickup and needle is your next step.

Hi,
Most if not all turntables would need to be connected to a PHONO INput which is high impedance with a high gain pre-amplifier stage. It will not work when connected to an AUX, CD or any line level inputs. Alternately, if your amp does not have any Phono Inputs, you can feed the turntable output to a preamp which can then be connected to any any line level inputs. An example may be found here or here. Additionally, there are some turntables with a built-in preamp.
Hope this be of help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information.
Good luck and kind regards.
SOURCE: all my vinyl sounds warped on turntable
Most common problem is the belt getting soft, especially if it has sat for a long time. It will get a weak spot where it sat on the drive pulley and every time the turntable goes around and hits that weak spot it will slow down a little making it sound like a warped album.
The belts are usually very easy to replace. Usually just lift off the turntable or there might be a small clip on the center pin, then it lifts off. Replacement belts can be ordered from several places, as shown in this search... http://www.google.com/search?&q=SL-B200+Technics+turntable+belt

Howdy Ivy:
An Adobe PDF format service manual for the Technics SL-23 turntable can be downloaded from

for about $16.
Good luck!

Yes you need a pre amp
It would also be the same if you connected it to a computer to record an LP to CD. Mine is a little different and has one already built in that I can switch in and out of line.
Try spend a little more if you can as many pre amps can introduce noise.
You may also want to check that the turntable is properly grounded to prevent noise too
