Hi, PROGRESS!!!! The wallbox is now working perfectly. I went back to the start and rechecked everything. I think the problem ended up being the 'Dogs and Step Relay Magnet' being very slightly too tight. Once I got these correct (and working), the stepper was still missing 1 count as it cycled. I t...

Hi Ron and Rob, I have made progress! The wallbox now gets the jukebox to scan with every selection. It also selects the correct NUMBER selected every time. However, it only selects the LETTERS J and K. If I select A,B,C, D etc it scans until it reaches the letters J or K and then stops at the corre...

Hi Rob, Thanks for taking the time to respond. I am still confused. Can you please tell me the purpose of the Unit Step Relay (many contact points for the ratchet) and the Group Step Relay (only 5 contact points)? I think the unit step relay may be my problem as I believe the release dog is not hold...

Hi Rob, Is the number clapper the 'group step relay'? (On the right looking from the top) The stepper is now getting the juke to scan about half the time (which is promising). I think the problem is with the group step relay ratchet not working all the time. I think I have adjusted it while cleaning...

Hi, I did a full clean and adjust of the stepper. Unfortunately, the juke is not working at all. The jukebox will not go into scan mode from the wallbox. I must have mis-adjusted something. If I put pressure on the Transfer relay contacts (during the cycle), it will start the jukebox scan. The jukeb...

Hi Ron & Rob, I rechecked all the contacts and they required some very slight adjustment. I followed Rob's advice the best I can and the stepper appears to be operating in the correct sequence. The clappers only move in-line with the 2050 tube. Is there a way to count the stepper clappers to che...

Hi, Thanks for sticking with me on this. I think you will be correct in that I knocked a contact out of adjustment while replacing the caps. I will spend some time and check them all again. Rob, I don't know how to check capacitance, all I have is a basic amp meter. I obtained a replacement 5mfd cap...

Hi, I went to my local electronic store to purchase the caps for the stepper. He was unable to supply all of the caps, so I took what I could get and started by installing 2 new caps. The manual says the caps should be .05 mfd 200v Condenser. The shop sold me .047 630V saying these will sustitute. T...

Thanks Ron,

I checked the caps and replaced a couple, but for the little extra time and cost, I think I will replace them all.

I'll let you know if it improves.

Regards

Gordon.

Hi, I am installing a 3W1 wallbox into my Seeburg C. It has a WSR5-L6 installed. The Electrical Selector is working fine. My problem is that when I select a record from the wallbox, the record it selects is usually 1 or 2 numbers off. That is, if I select record C5 it generally plays record C4 or C3...

Hi Slapshot, I just completed restoration work on a Seeburg M100C. I totally agree with Ron, the best lesson I've learnt is to get a good manual. Before you buy one, check that it has a complete 'Troubleshooting' Section. This provides easy to follow advice in resolving problems that you will have. ...

Hi Rob and Ron, Rob, your video showed me the problem! Thanks for posting it. The juke now works without any skating. My juke was set so that the trip switch was activated by 'pulling' the wire activator (by the spring) to activate the trip switch. Your video shows that the tone arm actually 'pushes...

Hi Ron, I appreciate your reply. No, the 'wire' is brand new and has not been bent. The attached photo is of the old 'wire'. The new 'wire' extends back a bit further and does not allow the spring to touch the switch. The bracket that holds the 'wire' does not have any adjustment so no room to move ...

Hi Ron and Rob, Thanks for the tip about the 5 coins. I tried it and 5 coins depress the actuator (I used Aussie 10 cent coins as they are the same weight as US quarters). So, I assume this means the switch is fine. I removed the nylon actuator (which is brand new) and ensured the 'pips' were fine. ...

Hi Rob and Ron, Thanks for taking the time to respond. I have replaced the switch, trip wire (above switch) and spring from one of the sellers listed above. No improvement. I'm a bit lost as there is only the one adjustment available for the spring length. If I reduce the spring length, the 'wire' d...
