Rock-Ola MZ8-1
by Tony Miklos 25 Jul '24

25 Jul '24

A customer bought one and I've never seen inside one yet. I guess it's touch screen. Will they work with what songs are downloaded on them without being hooked up to the internet? It came from a Texas Roadhouse. It looks like quite a few of these were auctioned off, not sure why. The customer can't tell me much about it except "it's a bubbler". He wants me to come and show him how to make it work. I don't see a manual for it on the Rock-Ola website. Tony

Want to disable my Rockola 1493 princess intermix option
by Allen Mamet 22 Jul '24

22 Jul '24

I have a what i guess is the intermix platter on my princess, my issue is i have a few 7” 45’s with the small hole. How do i “disable” the feature that changes the speed to 33 1/3 when those small hole 45’s are placed on the platter? I’d rather not cut a larger hole in the 45 Thx Allen Sent from Altair IV

Would appreciate some pictures from someone who has a WurliTzer 2900, of the fluorescent lamp below the selection keyboard. Would like to see its position and how the end tips are mounted. Thank you Shankar Singh

Another problem child, Wurlitzer 2810 not selecting
by Tony Miklos 13 Jul '24

13 Jul '24

I have a 2810 in for some work. Got everything fixed and testing it yesterday it suddenly stopped selecting. It was set on free play when it came in and that worked fine. (It had some funny little clip on the free play button to make it stay on.) It was working perfectly. I had tested it for some time, then suddenly when making a selection, the buttons latch in and that's it. Both latch solenoids are engaged and the associated contacts are cleaned and adjusted. I did go through the troubleshooting menu in the manual but didn't find anything. Any ideas? Thanks, Tony

Try cleaning the switches for the relays on the junction box.

LPC 480
by Tony Miklos 13 Jul '24

13 Jul '24

I put a new (used) clutch in because the old one somehow had the worm gear stripped. Often when it went to the right side and then reverses, it gets stuck and just slips. I went over the rubber stop and the reverse trip adjustments and it is working much better, I actually counted and it worked properly 100 times in a row. If I make it change direction before it gets to either end, it changes direction no problem at all, ever. (I hope Ron isn't reading this and knows that I was hitting the reversing switch by hand) :) It was acting up whenever changing from the right side to the other direction but the adjustments cured that. What remains is that if I play the last record on the right, A or B side, it then gets stuck again. Pushing the mech quickly to the left will engage the clutch and all it well until I select the last selection. Any ideas? I'm about ready to tell the customer not to play the last selection!

Good news to report! The motor shaft and drive wheel axis had no left-right/top-bottom moment. But they had push-pull movement. I replaced the turntable belt and switched over the sleeve from a newer motor shaft to replace the pitted one I had. I was surprised at the difference it made. The annoying noise was gone! Just have to remove the back-stop pawls to clean them… again… (groan…) Thanks again John!

W2900 Problems
by Shankar Singh 11 Jul '24

11 Jul '24

I am now playing this juke after a couple years rest. Cleaning all the relays and switches made it operational again. 2 annoying issues prevail- 1. Back Stop Pawl keeps sticking. I sprayed a few drops of auto parts cleaner at the pivot. It frees up for a few hours and then sticks again to cause wrong odd side selections. Any suggestions? Trying to avoid removing and washing. 2. Turntable motor noise. This noise is not heard through the speakers. But it sounds loud before and after the music drowns it out. If I push off the drive wheel from the motor sleeve, you can barely hear the disengaged motor spinning by itself. Could the arm that the drive wheel spins on have a problem? The sleeve seems pitted. I think this could have been done years ago to avoid issues from hardened drive wheel tyre. Could the belt or rubber mounts cause this? Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you. Shankar Singh
