Ron. You said it was wired wrong? If the power cable was plugged into the wrong port on the pro you’re probably dealing with damaged computer. I worked on a fireball awhile back that was wired incorrectly (customer tried fixing himself) and had same symptoms you are describing. He ended up buying a used computer and that resolved the issue.

Tony et al, Here's where I am now. Some background info. I bought this CD8B Oak Bubbler from a guy who tried to fix the CD player and gave up on the repair. The first thing I notice was that he had the CD wired wrong. (A very easy thing to do for sure but...) After putting the wires on correctly, the CD Comm error went away. BUT (isn't there always a BUT?), now nothing occurs. When I start the juke up, the basket does not turn. All the lights come on and the display works. If I try to enter a CD number, lets say 3801 (Track 1 on CD 38), I only get the first two digits in and the display says not available. If I try several different numbers, I get the same message UNTIL the machine says "OUT OF ORDER" on the display. I unplugged, restarted and again no turning basket. I went into SETUP/Diagnostic Mode function (Quick Find 145) it does not move the mechanism. I tried the Cancel/Scan button but no movement, no strain either like it was binding though. Later if I close the door (activate the switch), I get "Mechanism Busy". I have to restart to get out of the "Mechanism Busy" display mode. Upon every restart, it does not spin the basket. Now, I did say that the CD player was plugged incorrectly by previous owner. To that end, and assuming the worst case scenario that he fried the CD Circuit board, I out another CD player in it. This CD player does have a weak laser (that I need to send out for replacement of the laser) but, the circuit board is good. I did this knowing that the first thing the CD8 checks in startup is the CD player. With this CD player in my other Bubbler, it boots up, goes through all the diagnostics with a breeze (It just does not play every CD - classic symptoms, spins, stops rejects the CD most times, etc.) But even when this CD player is in the box in question, it still does not spin the basket on start up. Wow, I am making this long! I hope evreyone has stayed with me to this point. My plan is, this weekend I am going to put a new CR2330 battery in and see if that make ANY difference. What would everyone's suggestion be to start? Should I take out the entire assembly and take off the motor to make sure it is not bound up? Looking to try anything. And, I thank everyone who has read this to this point. Ron On Tuesday, October 3, 2023 at 03:14:13 PM EDT, ron jukebox via Jukebox-list jukebox-list@lists.netlojix.com wrote:
Tony, I am going to check again tonight to see if I can do any of that. The thing that threw me is the Comm. Failure message. I have had others that the CD Pro needed a new laser but never got this message. I will try and see if I can get anything to work like normal tonight and update.

Are you able to select a CD and it comes out and tries to play it? If so, 99.5% of the time the laser is bad.

Hello all. I have a Rockola Bubbler CD8C and when it is turned on, it
give a ERROR message in the display.
it says DIAGNOSTICS MODE CD Comm. Failure. Where do I start? Does anyone think it is possible that the board
inside the CD PRO Player went bad?
Hoping for some experienced folks to point me in the right direction.
