I am posting this as a follow up in hopes that it can help others. I never did get a reply from Vern on his cap kits, but I was finally able to find an alternate source for the big silver filter cap. The new cap didn't have solder tabs but instead had screw terminals so it took a little working to g...

Just thought I would revive this thread to help with other fellow Rockola jukebox owners. I managed to buy a few "very hard to find in the states" 45's for a fair price. Unknown to me was the fact that most or all UK 45's were small hole. I own a Rockola 470. My turntable already had worki...

OK--the clip type unlike the other types have "built in spacers". Often spacers are lost, resulting in hum--but no worries here--Another source of hum on these, is the ground connections--find the common ground with all the green-green/yellow wires in it, remove and clean all of them, mak...

Lift your tone arm off the record--if hum disappears, the source is the turntable grommetts. Check above in "--announcement" "used, new parts--where to find---" for a supplier-- Is the motor attached with "e" clips ( sirclips) or screws, or nuts ? Ron Rich Its the clip...

Three different places I looked only had black grommets and specified that it worked with Rockola jukeboxes. Where do you get white ones specifically for Rockola? The jukebox had the same minor hum with the yellowed and hard grommets, as it does with the soft new black ones. You would think if that ...

I just wanted to post an update. After many, many times of using Deoxit on pins, connectors and the rings, apparently overnight after one of those times did the trick. At this time every selection is picking up and has for the last many days. Deoxit really is the miracle cure for bad contacts. On an...

Suggestion on the external connection-- You might add a relay to that circuit-- As for the what stops the mech--it is the contact of the sensor on the read-out carriage, "seeing ground". If the pin is not supplying enough current to that sensor ( which is what I suspect, since all others ...

I was able to dig into this a little more today. The drain shield back to microphone input got rid of the hum. However, depending on the device it was hooked up to the sound of the 45's playing would be slightly lower when the external device was turned off. I could unplug the device and leave the c...

I recently purchased a Rockola 470. Typically I work on arcade games, so this is my first jukebox. I have it working pretty good and followed maintenance and adjustment directions in the manual. I do have several questions though. 1. At this time all 100 selections (A side) are playing and most 200 ...
