Thanks for the suggestion. I'll keep an eye out for a complete wallbox at a "reasonable" price. The problem is that I have a W1-L56 Wireless Wallbox, and it's the only model that uses this motor. So there's not much of a selection. I would try to rewind the stator myself (what do I have to lose?), but I have no clue as to what gauge wire to use. The wire looks about the diameter of the hair on my head (what's left of it...). -----Original Message----- From: JIM & LAURIE DIRKSEN via Jukebox-list [mailto:jukebox-list@lists.netlojix.com] Sent: Thursday, March 7, 2024 9:29 AM To: jukebox-list@lists.netlojix.com Cc: Paul Humel; JIM & LAURIE DIRKSEN Subject: [Jukebox-list] Re: Trashcan Wallbox motor repair Those are cheap and plentiful wallboxes.

It’s not a physical mounting difference – the motor cases are identical. It’s 110 vs 24. Wired Wallbox motors get their power directly over a 3 wire cable that connects to the 26 volt T2 transformer located in the Master Selection Receiver. Hence, the need for a 25 volt motor. Wireless Wallboxes have no direct connection to the Master Selection Receiver, so their motors have to run off of their own 110 house AC power. Today’s Trivia: The Wireless Wallboxes communicate with the Trashcan’s Master Selection Receiver by sending 250 KHz pulses to the MSR on top of the house’s 110 volt AC power. The MSR receives the 250 KHz pulses (I just realized that’s why it’s called a Master Selection Receiver!) and filters them out of the 110 volt AC power to pulse the 2050 tube in the Trashcan. -----Original Message----- From: JIM & LAURIE DIRKSEN via Jukebox-list [mailto:jukebox-list@lists.netlojix.com] Sent: Friday, March 8, 2024 8:49 AM To: 'Jukebox mailing list'; Paul Humel Cc: JIM & LAURIE DIRKSEN Subject: [Jukebox-list] Re: Trashcan Wallbox motor repair I didn't realize that motor was unique to that model.

Does anyone have schematics, etc for the Wireless Wallboxes of the 1940s? I only have one page 11031 from the master manual which doesn't cover the unit very well at all! Clear PDFs of at least 300DPI please. Building a master library of all the original factory manual's pages...have 1.3gb archived so far... Thanks!

My manual doesn’t have a page 1131. Or is page > 1131 from the 1948 version manual? My manual jumps from 11030, which is the W4-L56, to 12001, which is the 3W2-L56.Then it jumps from 12037, which is the 3W5-L56, to 12041, which is the 3W-1.The 3W1 ends on page 12058.

Hi Jim, Yes, it is a 110 motor – the hot connection goes straight to the motor. I have the entire Wireless Wallbox section (pages 11001 thru 11030) from my original 1947 Seeburg Vol 2 Service Manual if you want any schematics, etc. Your mention of a stepdown transformer got me to thinking – if I could replace my T1 stepdown transformer with one that has 25, 6.1, and 5.3 taps, I could use the 25 volt motor that I already have. The big problem will be to find a transformer with those taps. Do you have any suggestions as to how I might find one? Thanks. BTW, I just noticed that John Robertson is looking for schematics, etc for the Wireless Wallboxes of the 1940s. I’ll be responding to him next.

Hi Jim, I have opened up my Wallbox motor and found that it’s a shaded pole motor, with several broken wires on one of the stator windings. I found an excellent 25 minute video on youtube with a title of “Rewinding the universal, shaded pole motor from a Gerinvex or KB Discomatic jukebox” so I’m going to try to repair my Wallbox motor by rewinding the stator.
