alternatively, would it be possible to ship you the carriage arm for repair? and if so, what do you think it would cost?

ron, i tested the coil to the solder on the wiper arms and it was a-ok for the B side, but for the A-side, it was sort of hit or miss. i had to get the ohm meter tester inside the tape and it worked sometimes, but others not. i fear that the wires inside may've come loose at some point. i peeled bac...

i didn't see that you had typed two messages. i will try that shortly. thanks.

ron, i have attached an image showing you what i cleaned. it's from the parts catalog diagram of the read-out carriage. the tape i mentioned is wrapped around all the coils and it looks like it is factory. it's a paper based tape. the only thing i was really not able to confirm is if the coil is wor...

i checked all the slip-rings and they appear to be making contact, except the two innermost, which have black wires. i didn't try the DeOxIt yet since they all seemed to have contact. the outermost wiper with a black wire started rotating the carriage when i touched the slip-ring and the wiper at th...

thanks, i checked the service manual as well as tested the process with the A side vs B side. the B side hammer fires as soon as the selection is found. so i assume that the A hammer is not firing at all, but i am not sure why this is happening. as i mentioned, i can press it gently with my finger t...

i can see that all the hammers are there, but it doesn't seem to be firing on the read out side. is it supposed to fire when the song starts playing or when it's over? i have included some photos of the apparatus to see if anyone can tell if something is amiss here. when a selection is playing, i ca...

i got the first problem solved thanks to ron, and i think i have most operational issues working at this point, but two minor issues remain. the biggest issue is that after a song plays, the switch is not flipped back, so it will repeat indefinitely. or if there are multiple selections, they entire ...

ron,

you are the best! that is exactly what happened. man, i was about to cry. thanks so much!

p.s. i am very reserved with exclamation points, so two in one message lets you know how happy i am.

hello all, we just bought this jukebox and of course at the sellers home, it worked perfectly. once we had it moved to our house by professional movers, the turntable no longer rotates. it seems that everything else is working. if i use the reject button in the back or move the tonearm to the center...
