Other parts to check via Ron was secure clamping of the record. Clamp arm spring and center pin entering TT with no resistance when clamping record. Motor coupler and oiling motor with his favorite ND 20 wt oil thru all of the drive train. It didn’t have a motor support plug but added one. I would at least check the bearing for no flat spots and screw condition even if u have no play In TT. Kent Sent from Mail<https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=550986> for Windows

A quick update thank you Rob for the detailed instructions very helpful. I replaced the Cartridge with the NOS one from eBay it sounds fantastic! I did replace the Sapphire needle that came with the cart it for a new diamond needle. I did have to make a small adjustment to the trip switch but other than that good to go. This was for an elderly couple both in their 80’s and they were thrilled to hear it playing again.

2 yrs ago I worked on my neighbors USC-1. His band The Mystics had a hit song “Hushabye” . After recapping this juke his record sounded terrible (wavering). Other records not as noticeable. With Ron R’s help I tried many fixes. Nothing helped until he said try to see if the TT thrust is correct with .003” play. Mine had at least 1/8” and would not adj with thrust screw adj. The adj screw was hollowed out on the end from wear. Replacing screw and adj fixed the wavering problem. I had to buy 25 screws, so if anyone needs 1 let me know.

Selection Issue On TSU5 After Replacing TJU with RCSU
by Jerold Kress 28 Jan '23

28 Jan '23

Issue: The mechanism picks up and plays the first record (R8) no matter what selection is made. Also, while scanning and a selection is made, the mechanism immediately plays what ever record it's near. The jukebox was selecting fine. The issue appeared after I replaced the TJU3 with a RCSU3 and hooked up a wallbox. Using the wallbox to select a record exhibited the above issue. I then reversed my work, replacing the RSCU3 with the original TJU3 but the jukebox continues to exhibit the selection issue described above. I re-seated all the connectors with no improvement. I figured something happened when I replaced the TJU3 with the RCSU3 but have yet to figure it out. I have the manual and can start the trouble shooting guides but was hoping someone could deduce what happened between hooking up the RCSU and then reinstalling the original TJU3 in the TSU5. (Previous fix: replaced both AO2s, 6X4, 6X4 socket, C515, C514, R518). Thanks for any insight! jerold k

This machine is mine and although it's in nice condition, they are so ugly I might have to part it out.

I am pretty sure the cartridge you have was used on the G200 and newer like H and I models. Not sure. I don't have those models or manuals for them. You would have to research that. F80 F120 and G80 G120 would use the GE RPX - 040 style. Thats the one I see in them and use. You need to diagnose your problem before wasting money on cartridges. Even the one you are using should make no difference and sound good. You need to check what I have listed at minimum. A good cartridge option is Shure M77 series. It will fit with minimal modifications. Don't solder the tonearm cable to the cartridge. use some adapters. Again, diagnose the problem first.

Hi Jamie, Back to my original reply to you. I dont think you have a problem, unless the output of more modern records is seriously quiet that it's totally obvious. That is the way the records were made, coupled with your old cartridge, and the fact your machine doesn't have AVC to level the output of different records. I would advise upgrading your cartridge regardless. Shure M44C or Stanton 500, Stanton 400V3 or Pickering NP/AC.

Rock Ola accu trac arm pivot friction
by Nigel Pugh 22 Jan '23

22 Jan '23

Can anyone tell me please is there a bearing in the bottom of the brass tone arm pivot ? I cant tell with a torch if it's actually a bearing or an indent ? The reason I ask is, I have 3 of these arms and each one seems to have the same problem, there is too much horizontal friction in that bearing and the stylus cantilever is pulling the arm, so when you watch it close up it looks like the cantilever is doing a little dance to the let and right. I'm experienced in tonearm setup and have ruled out everything other than friction in that shaft. 1. Pivot shaft flushed clean with IPA and lighter fuel, spotless 2. Tonearm cable removed completely 3. Trip switch removed 4. Tracking set with digital guage between 2 and 7 grams (Shure M44MR original cartridge) 5. This issue usually occurs when attempting to track a cartridge at the lighter end of it's spec, or with stiff tonearm cable 6. If I track at 7 grams it's ok, but that's definitely not right. Should be 3 to 5. 7. Tried with kiddie spring and also counterbalance 8. Used various new and used styli, M44C and domestic M44-7 I've got 7 jukeboxes and 8 turntables and by a long shot this arm has infinitely more friction than all of them. And all 3 variants of this arm do also, hence asking if there is or should be a bearing in the pivot. Or, is it just a really bad design ? Any ideas ? I've had this 470 for around 30 years and only discovered this when I realised the crappy arm spring had stretched over time and was tracking on the lightest setting at 7g. So I made a counterbalance and that's how it's come to light that the arm don't like tracking below 7g. It also sounds much better at 7g. Something isn't right so I'm looking for an outside of the box thought or a sensible modification. Maybe there's nothing wrong at all and it's just a rubbish design. I did think about dropping a bearing into the shaft but haven't got one to hand. Nigel, uk

1963 AMI ROVE JEL 200 TURNTABLE PROBLEM + INFO
by angkor3 20 Jan '23

20 Jan '23

Hi everybody! I need your help because I have a problem. I just started the restoration of an Ami Rowe JEL200. I have bought it perfectly working last summer but it has been sitting until last week because I was restoring another jukebox. Last week I decided to play a few records to check if everything was ok but it wasn't. I try to explain the problem as clearly as I can since my first language is not English. The mechanism works, the turntable turns but it plays the record very slowly (constant but slow). It gives me the idea that the Automix doesn't work anymore and that it is playing records like they all are 33 and not 45 RPM. Can this be the problem? Or what else? What do I have to check? I'd also like to know which are the correct color patterns for cabinet and painted metal parts in the font panel: online I have seen so many different combinations (some cabinets are in two colous, other just one; metal panels too and also the mech/turntable cover/tray are of various colours!). Thank you for your help and have a good day! Emanuel

AMI G-80 Popping Sound
by Jamie McElroy 19 Jan '23

19 Jan '23

Hello all, I wonder if anyone can answer this question? On my AMI G-80, after a record plays, the tone arm lifts up and just a second before the record gripper picks up the record to place it back in the record rack, there is a loud "pop" sound from the speaker as if you scraped your finger over the needle really hard. But it's not a scratch sound, it's a popping sound when the tone arm lifts itself from the record. It must be the sound of the tone arm hitting the switch underneath the turntable cover to tell the record to be picked up but it reverberates through the speaker as a popping sound. Is anyone familiar with this and know how to eliminate it? Thank you for your help. Jamie

Update To Seeburg TUS5 Blowing Caps
by Jerold Kress 18 Jan '23

18 Jan '23

Jay Hennigan was correct, pins 6 & 7 on the 6X4 tube socket were shorting. I replaced the socket and C514 is now stable. However, one of the OA2 tubes glows bright blue at the base when I turn on the unit as if the tube is shorting. The issue follows the tube when I switch the OA2's. Has anyone seen this issue on an OA2? I'm assuming I need to replace both tubes before I put the TSU back in the jukebox. Thanks --jerold k

Update to Seeburg TSU5 Blowing Cap Issue
by Jerold Kress 17 Jan '23

I found no shorts to ground that aren't supposed to be grounded, both with tubes & pulse amp in and out. All electrolytics are in the correct configuration. Questions: can I power up the TSU5 without C514 to test if any AC voltage is reaching it? Can I power up the TSU without the other juke connectors plugged into it? Hoping to obtain a new 6X4 & C514 cap today for retesting. Any suggestions or comments greatly appreciated.

AMI Continental 2 Microtecnica bias spring
by Federico Croci 17 Jan '23

17 Jan '23

Hello everyone! I'm working on a Conti2, italian Microtecnica version. I installed a new Audio Technica Stilo (Atn3600l), but I still have some trouble playing some 45s, towards the end of the records, when the tone arm begins to push on the switch for the end of the record. The reset microswitch it's the original one, maybe it could be changed with some other model...? Also, the Microtecnica version it's missing the bias spring I can see in the Conti2 manual. Just wondering if someone has a full kit to sell (I'm missing everything, the orange metal support part, as well as the spring itself), or if it can be bought somewhere.

seeburg hf100r motor noise
by Lore Gianno 16 Jan '23

16 Jan '23

Hello, I own a working seeburg 100R. I have always used it as it is (I seldom use it) but now I'm trying to fix all the things that are not really well tuned. One thing is that playing side A of a disc the mech-motor is really quite, while playing side B from the motor-gears "area" there is much more noise. I tried to understand where the noise exactly comes from but it is quite impossible to understand. As you will see the noise is generated only after a disc of side B is put into play position. I uploaded a video, maybe gives some clues to experienced people like you in order to bring me some goos suggestions! Here the video link: https://youtube.com/shorts/hZVCpzK66gs?feature=share Thanks in advance Lore

FOLLOW UP TO SEEBURG TSU5 ISSUE
by Jerold Kress 15 Jan '23

15 Jan '23

It was suggested I test DC voltages to both C514 & 515 as well as pull the 6X4 and test the AC coming in. 80VDC on C514. 69VDC on C515. C514 was heating up with these tests so I switched off the machine as soon as I could read the voltage. With the 6X4 pulled I next tested 313VAC coming from the transformer to pin 7 of the 6X4 socket but then something unexpected happened: C514 blew. There should have been no voltage reaching either cap with the tube pulled. This suggests a short somewhere but I can't visually see any short. How else would voltage reach the caps? I'm replacing both caps & getting a new 6X4 next week but I don't see this solving the problem if the cap blows with the tube out. Any ideas or suggestions welcomed. jerold k

FOLLOW UP TO SEEBURG TSU5 ISSUE
by Jerold Kress 15 Jan '23

15 Jan '23

This is a follow up to my previous posting about issues with my Seeburg TSU5. I've isolated the problem to C514 over heating but so far have not determined the cause. I replaced C514 & C515 and R518 that bridges their negative ends. (I tested the caps to be sure they weren't shorted & the resistor's value is good.) C514 is connected to the -400V side of the 6X4 rectifier tube. I know this is a positive ground system so I was careful to replace the caps in their proper configuration, with both pos ends soldered to ground. I've switched out the 6X4 with 3 working replacements (all from working guitar amps) but C514 continues to overheat. (I shut down the system after a few seconds but in that time C514 is warm to hot.) I can test the voltage reaching this cap if that info will help in a diagnosis. Any insight into why this cap is overheating so quickly would be appreciated. Thanks! jerold k

Wanted to thank Jim Dirksen and Norm McCrae for their help with this issue. Can’t believe I overlooked this previous ( I do wear glasses) but someone had added a jumper wire between a leaf and snap switch. I’m guessing this was a way to create free play option? When I received this ES and WSR I found the take off ramp on the CCU bent out of the way so I assumed that was the crude free play setup. If the ramp was bent out of the way what would be the need for the jumper on the switches?? Anyway we’re back in business Regards Rick
