Well, I have been at this for the last 2 days and no real progress. I believe the problem is with the credit unit. Some observations: * The credit unit seems to supply power to the keyboard for song entry. * 2 days ago the credit unit seem to be working - the problem was that after you selected a so...

Thanks Ron. I'll check to see if the Write in arm is firing and to see if the wobble plate switch is pulled. I do have the service manual (got it off eBay) - it's been a lot of help. For the light, it's the light bulb on the power supply. I have noticed every time the write in sequence fires on my w...

Fixing up a Rockola 440 I purchase for parts for a friend. I had some issue with the PSU - they seem to be fixed and so now on to the other issues. Now, after a selection is made, the Write In arm rotates but the read in arm does not engage. I believe some other thing are suppose to happen - like th...

Hi Markymarkuk,
This problem sounds like the same problem I am having with my Rockola 440. What were the pins you jumped? I want to see if mine has the same problem.
Thanks,
Steve

Thanks Ron,
I did. I currently have an email out to some folks I found on the Always Jukin site. Nothing yet...

Latest update - just got a email from the vendor. Looks like this cartridge mounts the other way around. The previous one fit between the two screw mounts so I assumed this on did too. Guess not.

Sure - here's a pic. The space between the two screw mounts on the tone arm is not wide enough. The previous cartridge fit between.

Sorry for all the post about my new Rockola, but this forum is awesome for me since I am new to jukeboxes and have recently restored a RO 440. I am now at the stage where I am trying to get the nice to haves - like the animation motor and gear for the wheels on the top half of the jukebox. I actuall...

I recently bought a Stanton 500V3 replacement cartridge for my Rockola 440. The cartridge was too big to fit on the tone arm so I am going to have to return it. Is there any updated cartridge replacement (i.e. better sound) for the Shure M44 that came with the Rockola? thx

Thanks - removed everything. The problem appears to be related to the cams and micro switches. Got it to grab a record, but now it's stuck on the return.

So I was installing a new cartridge on my Rockola 440. Went to test it and left the solder roll laying in the turn table by the gripper. The gripper came out and while it was attempting to reach up to grab the record got stuck on the roll. Now the magazine and gripper will not move... stuck. It make...

Thanks for the advice. Just ordered the grommets.

Great forum - thanks for all the help so far. I have a noob question. I have restored a Rockola 440 and it is working great except that it plays a little too fast. When you press down on the left front side of the turntable housing it plays normal speed. So it seems that I need to adjust the height ...

Thanks for the info. I am going to look into all of these suggestions.

I just got my Rockola 440 in great working order - it sounds amazing! I had the idea to run a line out to our back porch so that when we have a party, folks out on the porch can hear the juke as well. The line out would go to a mini shelf system with an amp and speakers. I have looked for the remote...
