Clones, I think Ron's price is wayyyyyyyyyy to cheap ! I worked on a few of these with George Wagner years ago. He has worked on Wurlitzer since the mid 40's . He said they didn't run well even when they we're new . Why do you think Frank Hamwey (who is probably one of the best Wurlitzer mech re bui...

Awhile back I posted about a Wurlitzer 24 mech I was having problems with ! Well by chance I found the answer to the problem ! Thanks to the video that John Papa (National jukebox Exchange ) posted in March ! Below I posted the link to the video and John....Thanks for sharing this video to all of us...

Thanks for the input Ron . Sometimes I think I must be outta my mind to take on projects like this ! LoL But the machine is so nice you just wanna bring it back to life ! The guy that owns it told me he got it from his dad before he passed away and that it was restored by someone in Pennsylvania . I...

A guy brought me a beautiful restored 800 that is locked up with a record almost all the way up into play position and won't go any further . The fiber gear is stripped so it won't go any further. I've backed the turntable down almost to the bottom position by turning the motor by hand ,then it is s...

Kent, The ones I have are 24v-21w-ba15 .They work well. But I think Ron probably has the right idea about running 2 -12v in a series .These blubs should last a long time . I'd be careful when working with these wires not to short out anything because they are on the same circuit as the 24v opto sens...

WAIT !!! The ones I'm using are automotive bulbs ,but they have been in the machine for over a year now and it runs about 10 hours a week sometimes more but they are still burning ! Doug

I've got a few of those and I'm only about 15 to 20 miles west of you ! If you have the one more time Cd it actually takes 2 of these. One for the star and one for the bottom arch. One goes out the other doesn't light either...replace both at the same time because the other will probably go soon ! I...

James... If a fuse is blown....which is probably the case (4amp)(or whatever it calls for ) .Replace it only with a 4 amp NO MORE !!!! Have some one turn the box on watch and see if fuse blows and or turns red ! If so you probably have a dead short. I had the same problem on a OMT cd box a year or t...

Hey Doc !!! I'm here to tell you... I've brought worse than that back from the dead !!!! These we're pretty tough old machines in their day ,and still can be ! Good luck, take your time, Ron's book will help you a lot when going through this ,,,especially if you are not familiar with them .These a a...

Thanks Rob & Ron for all the helpful tips ! I may end up with this in the shop yet! (I'm a fool for pain ) :lol: I thought this guy told me the machine was restored by maybe Zuddie or something like that about 6 years ago . He said he talked to him and he said something about a gear that goes ba...

Thanks Ron & Rob for answering my question ! AS usual ///// it looks like i'm a day late and a dollar short ! :lol: I know I don't have that bow .I'm not sure I'm going to fix this thing for this guy being he wants it fixed in home. Since I'm not familiar with that mech, I will probably pass. It...

Ron, Thanks for your quick response !!! I don't have a parts book on a Continental,it been many moons since I poked my head inside one too.I'm thinking you're right about this .I think the 1st 1100 series mech came about in 1963, the year after the continental .I've got several manuals on Ami's from...

Can anyone tell me if the record pick-up bow and gears are the same from a ..say JAO series to a continental ? A JAO has the 1100 series mech in it . I can't compare the two because it's far away . Thanks ... Robert

I'd say you better take Ron's advice on this for sure ! And I'm here to tell you that model is one of the heaviest jukes I"ve ever moved. Hope you have a good back !!! Robert

That's about 150.00 more than I would give for it LOL But..... when these are working properly they sound FANTASTIC !!! If it we're mine I would convert it over to a hard drive or flash drive kit from cdadapter !
