My old shop manuals only go beck to 2104 -but that is essentially the same. Frozen bearings are common on those old machines, the oil has turned to molasses. Had the same problem on my 2410, on the very bottom of the mech was an arm that went one way or the other when a coil pulled in, the coil did...

Well Ron, you were right both times. The "B" selection was set on album (I found the switches to change it)... and the "A" selection had dirty contacts that fortunately I was able to clean up a little bit and now it works great. Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it! This ...

I'll check into that, i'm not sure if that can be changed but i'm going to get the manual out and study it. Basically the A wasn't latching in, but now it latches in. So if you select A2 or whatever, the 'selector' on the bottom spins around like it's going to select it, but it never stops and selec...

Made a lot of progress on this machine today, I'm starting to like it. It's not so bad once you learn how it works. - It wouldn't cancel the selection all the time... the cancel microswitch was bad, when it was depressed it had 300ohms of resistance, which made the light on the side of the mech not ...

Guy's, Seeburg made the same basic mechanism from 1949, thru the last 45 rpm, in 1984-- A couple of years ago, I needed a part that someone had damaged on an '82 model mech--I removed it from a 1950 model--worked perfectly-- Ron Rich Seeburg definately wins that battle. I was amazed the first time ...

Only thing I can add for now is that I once had a 484 that I thought the voltage was out on, eventually figured out that the LED was in fact burnt out.

Doesn't appear to be your case though because your tests show you're missing the 24 v. Have you checked all the fuses?

I have nowhere near the experience some of the great gentlemen have that have posted on this thread, but I've tinkered with several different models over the years, and I'll just tell you my novice opinion is the Rock-ola's from the 70's and 80's were very well designed and reliable little boxes in ...

Alright I hate when people post threads then never post the 'fix' so I thought I'd update. Basically what it all came down to was, the Wurlitzer 3400 Statesman is COMPLETELY intollerant of any kind of scratch or wear on a record. I've had record players and jukeboxes my whole life, and generally I'v...

I rewired one side of the cartridge which made it much worse, so I must have had it right the first time... maybe the wiring is bad from the cartridge to the amp?

Thank you for the info, Rob. I'm completely ignorant of the ceramic vs. Magnetic differences so thanks. I replaced the original cartridge with a Pfanstiehl P-132 which I see now is just another ceramic! I used the same pickup in an older model wurlitzer and it sounded good, but it was a tube amp so ...

Hi folks! I have a Wurlitzer Statesman, I've heard these are pretty bad quality jukeboxes. I've got this one up and going, but the sound is just pretty bad on it. The bass is good but the tonearm picks up all the scratches or something on the record and you've got a pretty bad static/crackle/pop goi...

Thanks for the explanation... I watched it to see what was going on. The motor IS reversing, so that far is fine. While the carousel is turning, I can see the pawl skipping up over each tooth, then when the motor reverses the pawl just doesn't stick in the 'tooth'. If I press the pawl in a little bi...

Since you enjoy it on the EM Pinballs, if I were you i'd break it down, just so you can get familiar with how the whole thing goes together. Personally, I wouldn't.. .but since you seem to enjoy that side of it, it might be kind of cool. Then you would be pretty good at any Seeburg down the road, th...

I've got the diagram in the manual... I'll check to make sure the motor is actually reversing (what makes it reverse? )

This one's just spinning and the pawl isn't grabbing like it's supposed to. Gear is just spinning underneath it. Maybe I didn't get the bolt tight when I reinstalled it?

Hi folks! I have a Wurlitzer 2800 that I'm working on, and trying to get all the 'ghosts' out of the mech on it. When I first got it, it had a strange problem where the carousel wouldn't turn smoothly.. it would turn three or four records, stop, turn three or four more, stop, until It got to where i...
