I have run into that before in other models.
 There is usually part of the mechanism that has jammed up.
 You might try checking the cycling gear- the big pot metal one in the center of the lower pix.
 I suspect it is jammed or seized to its mounting stud.
Please let us know what you find.

The Phonograph arm on my 1290 is under some kind of spring tension that won't allow it to rest on the record surface. I can pull the arm over to the album but when released it snaps back to its resting home position.

I can't tell by looking at the mechanism underneath what might be wrong.

Can someone help point me in the right direction?Philco 48-1290 Phonograph Arm 20190110
