Seeburg Q light color
by Tony Miklos 22 Dec '24

22 Dec '24

Is the Q 160 supposed to have any color for the lights? The white diffuser is with it and some patched up different faded colors and a very faded color slip on on the top bulb. I'm picturing blue down below the lower bulb but don't know if they came with that. Thanks, -- Tony Miklos Tony's Jukebox Repair

Seeburg Goldenjet credit issue.
by Jukebox Repairman 21 Dec '24

I’m troubleshooting the above mentioned juke. Drop a quarter in, goes through rejector and triggers the quarter leaf switch, but the select light does not illuminate. If I unplug from the wall outlet, and plug back in the select light comes on and selections can be made. Does this sound like a bad cap on the timing relay?? Thanks Rick

AMI 120 vs 200 play
by M De Simone 19 Dec '24

19 Dec '24

Seasons Greetings fellow members, I’m currently working on restoring an 1958 AMI model I120 and it occurred to me that the push buttons have all 200 selections with the last 8 letters blocked off. I’m wondering if the stepper would be same and any other differences? I have access to a 200 selections record basket and have a 200 selection title section on hand. Is that all it would take to convert it to 200 play? also I need to order new push buttons anyway, Anyone who has this information please share! Thank you, Mauro Sent from my iPhone

Seeburg Symphonola 1940

I've never looked at the insides of one of these, all I know is that it doesn't play. And of course "It all lights up and everything" :) Anyway, from what I could see in the poor pics of the mech, it looks fairly simple. Are they easy? Trying to decide if I want to take the job or not since I have an open spot in the shop. Tony

AY Contact Block sparking
by 19k20＠comcast.net 09 Dec '24

09 Dec '24

Good evening Attached is a video link demonstrating the arching issue of the outside pin on the contact block. This arcing is causing a pop in the speakers when scanning from right to left. I think I recall Ron Rich stating these can be retipped...maybe? If so, with what? Replace the pin in the contact block or replace the entire contact block. Anyone have any experience in this? Other that the annoying clicking sound..the box is fully functional, amp, selection receiver, and pulse amp have been recently serviced. Machine is on freeplay. I'm leaning towards this pin..becasue if I gently pull down on it.while scanning..popping stops. https://photos.app.goo.gl/pMCb6qdhnEzpMc9VA Thanks in advance -rich myers -- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. www.avast.com

Anyone know what size potentiometer the MRV2/3 uses I believe they are the same size. This will be for use with my Seeburg 161. Also if anyone has or can point me to a schematic for the remote would be greatly appreciated. Do

Seeburg 161
by Donald Whiting 29 Nov '24

29 Nov '24

Hi all I could use some guidance… I’m working on my Seeburg 161 I purchased. It has a HFMA2 amp that was rebuilt by the previous owner . I have two issues first is…as a record begins to play there is no hum however as the AVC kicks in the hum begins and increases and is quite loud then gets drowned out by the music until the end of the song where it is very loud until the mute switch kicks in. Any thought? Second issue is the mech sometimes “jitters” or starts and stops rapidly after record play it will eventually begin to scan properly. Any guidance is appreciated… Don

Rockola CD8B power issue
by Jukebox Repairman 19 Nov '24

19 Nov '24

Customer contacted me about his CD juke. States he hadn’t played it for awhile and when he made a selection, it loaded the disc, started to spin then machine went completely dark. I asked him to look at LED’s on power supply and he told me the only one lighted is the 24VDC I went there yesterday and checked all fuses in the supply and the amp. All good. Nothing looks burnt on the board. Does this sound like a transformer fried???

HFMA1 amplifier R48 Value
by M De Simone 18 Nov '24

18 Nov '24

Hey there esteemed members, seems like I’m on a run with questions lately. I need to replace the 25k section of the dual value 20watt “standee” resistor in this amplifier from a Seeburg V200. My question: is each section 20watts or is it 10watts per section, for a total of 20watts? Reason I ask is that I have, on hand, 2- 5w resistors I can put in series and I’d be done but if I need a 20 watt then I have start hunting one down. Parts list/manual doesn’t help here. Thanks, Mauro Sent from my iPhone

AMI WQ200 bench test
by M De Simone 17 Nov '24

17 Nov '24

Hello All, Can anyone tell me if I can test an AMI WQ200 wallbox on the bench with just powering the 26vac? I have one that will select if I help turn the motor a bit but coins do not advance the wiper blades. I’ve made some adjustments and did some contact cleaning but it does the same thing. I’m wondering if I need a DC voltage or something else? Thank you for any advice, Mauro Sent from my iPhone

M100A Pickering Cartridge
by Dean Carriveau 30 Oct '24

30 Oct '24

Hi all, I've been making repairs to my Pickering M100A mono blackhead cartridge and am wondering what the purpose of the "damping "grease inside of the shell is. The original grease had become nearly hard and was removed during repairs. What will happen if I don't replace it with a thick grease, such as dialectric grease and what is the purpose of the grease in the first place? On another issue, With no record on the turntable and "A" side selected, the tonearm moves into position and when pushed forward does not spring back but stays where it should.with forward pressure removed. If you continue to push, it will eventually trip the reject. Doing the same test, again without the record, on the "B" side, the tonearm wants to move back toward you when my finger stops pushing. With a record playing on the "B" side and entering the end of record runout it will often skip back a bit into the program rather than continue on and reject the record. I can override the issue by increasing the tension on the B side tension spring but would rather understand why the tonearm skates back on one side and not the other. Dean

Wurlitzer 544 Amp diode Question
by M De Simone 30 Oct '24

30 Oct '24

Hello From Sunny Ontario Canada today! I’ve been given a W544 to look at as it has replaced the -28vdc output with 66vac which (I’m sure) means that diodes SR1 and SR2 are shorted. Never having dealt with this previously, My question is what is a good replacement for these metal case screw mounted diodes? I’m thinking a 1N4007 would probably do the job but thought it would be wise to ask before jumping in. The originals look pretty hefty so really not sure? Any suggestions would be most welcome. Thank you, Mauro Sent from my iPhone
