I checked the fuses with a meter and twisted the tubes and replaced the ballasts. When I scan, the wheel turns and the turntable turns too. But in operation mode, it doesn’t move when I make a selection. The buttons don’t pop up after being pressed down. It all worked fine before I installed the tube. The tube is dead.

Did you check the fuses with a meter or with your eye ?
Have you tried rotating the tube ?
You don't mention the tube starter, did you change that ?
Pop out a pin on the selection drum on the right hand side. Does the carousel spin and play if you do that ?

On all of these I have ever worked on, the "fidelity equalizer" adjustment where position 1 is drastically different than settings 2 and 3. It's hard to find a good setting for it.
Is there any modification to help with this so the 1 setting isn't so drastic? Or maybe adjust position 2 somewhere closer to position 1?

If you have miswired or shorted the ballast the lamp may blow immediately and possibly take out a fuse.
