I would appreciate any help with this. I’m not that familiar with Wurlitzers mostly work on Seeburg I have a customer that’s and older gentleman that said the needle broke and he replaced it on his Wurlitzer 3300. Since then it has low volume. I stopped by to take a look and he had several new needles. So I replaced it still low volume. Should I replace the cart at this point? The needles are the correct ones. He said it has been working fine for the past 20 years Thanks Don
Might be a good idea to pass another audio signal (CD Player, mp3 player) through the amplifier to confirm whether it is working fine or needs to be serviced.

Might be stating the obvious here...but after you connect the iPod to the amp...I use and external turntable....you will need to select a record space that you have removed the record from....or the mute switch will still be on...and you won't hear anything.
Another test is to plug the jukebox turntable inputs into an external amp...phono input...or preamp and then into aux port on an external amp. Play a record. See if you have good output. 25 years is a long time to be playing fine....amp might be starting to fail.

That is the best overall set of suggestions. Bear-in-mind Wurlitzer used a ceramic cart so an external TT with magnetic won't work w/o a preamp. A tuner, CD player is best here. Chances are the cart twisters or saddle gave out during stylus replacement. FWIW: this was the best sounding ceramic cart that wurlitzer ever used in their machines. Too bad it was only one year.
