AY Contact Block sparking
by 19k20＠comcast.net 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

Amp was rebuilt a years or so back. Been sounding great then suddenly lost all volume. No sound noise of any kind from pickup. All tubes test good. Suggestions please as to which switch or other component may be the issue. Thanks. Allen Sent from the all new AOL app for iOS

She shows up every Thanksgiving and selects her favorite song on the jukebox just when everyone sits down to eat. This year will be different. See linked image. https://jayh1.imgbb.com/ -- Jay Hennigan - jay(a)west.net Network Engineering - CCIE #7880 503 897-8550 - WB6RDV

Seeburg 161

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

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

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
