Wurlitzer OMT CD
by Tony Miklos 01 Aug '25

01 Aug '25

Are all the control boards on these interchangeable? I have an old box that long ago I upgraded from the old style laser to the newer Pro Player and up. The player acts exactly like it it bad. Spinning, stopping, spinning backwards eventually returning the cd to the carousel. I thought for sure it was the player, but that tests good in my test box at the shop. Any ideas what may be wrong. I was so sure it was the player that I didn't troubleshoot it any further. Dumb move, I know. It's just that I've never run into one that had a problem with the cd player that wasn't the player itself. I don't even know if the control board(s) are interchangeable or not all the same or who fixes them. -- Tony Miklos Tony's Jukebox Repair

Title strips in python
by Julie Mitchell 01 Aug '25

01 Aug '25

I got tired of tweaking existing label printouts to fit the format of my perforated sheets, so I ended up writing something myself. Below you can see the output, which scales the text when needed. You can drop whatever label style you want in there, or leave that blank. Are there some others here who know how to run python and would help me test this out before I distribute it? Please email me at julie.mitchell@gmail rather than reply to the group. All the best, Julie

780 blows fuse
by ascott822＠aol.com 01 Aug '25

01 Aug '25

Sorry I’m late getting back. The box blows amp fuse when record comes up. Was suggested to pull the 5Z3 and see if it still happens. No, the fuse doesn’t blow when the tube is out of the amp. Where should I go from here or what test might I perform to identify the issue? The amp has new caps from 3 years ago.Has worked with no issues until recently. Thanks.

End of 2023, Sound Leisure and Gudrun Wurlitzer found a license agreement for the name "Wurlitzer" to produce the "Wurlitzer 1015 Tribute" jukebox. https://soundleisure.com/sound-leisure-wurlitzer-tribute-1015/ Gibson doesn't own Wurlitzer any more, Wikipedia is not up to date it seems. The German Wurlitzer company, belonging for Gibson, is gone since March 2016 already. In 2018 Gibson filed for insolvency which luckily it could be prevented finally. But I think they gave up the Wurlitzer section at that time. The trademark law was then taken over by Gudrun Wurlitzer, her daughter and her son in 2020. They all belong to the German branch of the Wurlitzer family, and Gudrun Wurlitzer is co-owner of the "Herbert Wurlitzer clarinet manufacture". Kind regards - Hildegard

Wurlitzer 780 blows amp fuse

The fuse in my 780 amp blows as the mech rises to play a record. Amp works fine out of the box. Mechanisms works as it should but the amp fuse blows. Suggestions? Thanks, Allen Sent from the all new AOL app for iOS

780 amp blows fuse

I’m still trying to trace down the issue. Box was playing fine a month ago. Recently it blows amp fuse as record comes up. In trial and error tests I have found that it doesn’t blow with speaker unplugged. Suggestions. Thank you, Allen Sent from the all new AOL app for iOS

AMI Continental 1 stops at all records then rejects them immediately
by M De Simone 13 Jun '25

13 Jun '25

I have a Continental 1 which was working fine and I decided it was time to replace the ac chords on the mechanism. I removed the mech, removed the turntable and the gripper motors, replaced the zip chords and put it back together. It started picking every selection and immediately rejecting them as soon the needle made contact so I figured I had to reset the transfer motor as per the service manual. I did so carefully and adjusted all 6 microswitches but the problem still persist. It also seems the gripper and record are a bit out of alignment. Before I start adjusting everything and potentially worsening the issue I thought it best to deal with the selection and rejection issue first. I have reread the manual but still have no idea what could cause this? The end of record switch is not activated. Looking to the group for some guidance here.

Rockola 490 Amplifier Transistor
by M De Simone 07 Jun '25

07 Jun '25

I’m out of my “tube amp” comfort zone here but, a very good freind asked if I could help him out. The amplifier is from a model 490 and the complaint was no sound left channel. I have been through the amp and found 2 blown fuses F3 and F4 which relate to the left channel and 1 shorted output transistor Q15. I know in 70’s Seeburg amps usually the drivers go with it and best to replace drivers and power transistors but in this case all others are fine, hoping someone who is familiar with this amplifier can tell me if there are any other components that would be taken out with this or if I’m good to replace the power transistor and fuses and go test? Also what transistor would replace Q15? Thanks for any suggestions, Mauro Sent from my iPhone
