Connie, You probably have 2 issues that are not related. The tube may be good unless one end is black. Keep turning it when both ends in the socket, back & forth and see if it flashes on/off. The sockets on the ends may need cleaned or replaced. The other issue is selecting and you say the turntable rotates in scan mode, which it should to load records. Down below there is a selection wheel (pinbank) with 100 toggle levers that move up/down when u select a record. Move a couple and with the scan switch in PLAY it should pick up a record or 2 and play how many levers you moved. ________________________________ From: John Robertson via Jukebox-list <jukebox-list@lists.netlojix.com> Sent: Wednesday, September 23, 2026 6:59 PM To: connie cleek via Jukebox-list <jukebox-list@lists.netlojix.com> Cc: John Robertson <jrr@flippers.com> Subject: [Jukebox-list] Re: Selection not working after changing fluorescent tube.

I have a Rockola 444. I changed a fluorescent tube and it it lit up for a second and burned out. I should have done it with the machine turned off, but I didn’t. Since then, when I push the selection buttons, they stay depressed and nothing happens. I’ve checked the fuses and replaced the 2 ballasts. What else should I do to get it working again? The record wheel turns fine when I use the manual scan.

If the tube burned out (Flashed brightly on the end - now open circuit on one or both pairs of pins) then your ballast is shorted for that tube. You must replace it...
