Sounds good, I just saw the pins and am looking closer at them with the diagram as well. The whole shaft seems a bit loose to me.

FYI, I'm going to refer back to Brooks post in January. Seems to have the troubleshooting info I need so I will check it out and report back.

I have a 5250 connected to my 2150 and am confused by a couple of things you have said. First, the selections are identical between the two, meaning that I print two identical jukebox strips when I get new records. One goes in the jukebox, the other in the wall box. I had a number of issues with my...

Greg, Just look at the step-up wheels--are they "homed" ? Check with the power OFF--"push" the wheels home --If sticky, a drop or two of 20 wt. motor oil on the shaft(s), --work it in, and you should be good to go ! Ron Rich They appear to be homed in to the starting position ea...

Thanks, so what are the general steps needed to check the stepper wheels not homing after write-in? I did end up replacing the .1 and .5 capacitors with no change.

Thanks again,
Greg

I know this post may raise more questions at this point, but I wanted to ask and get started on some ideas. I have a 5250 wallbox plugged into my 2150 Wurlitzer and I just fixed a selector issue on the jukebox itself and it’s now making correct selections from the letter/number buttons at the front ...

Wanted to provide an update: just finished re-wiring both letter selection plugs and the selector is now properly selecting letters. Funny enough though I was "fixing" another issue while I had the selector out and now have another problem unrelated to the letter selector. I'll have to pos...

Yeah it looks like the only thing changed on mine is the selector casting. The pinbank on mine still has the 2100-2150 stamp on it and has the 3 different type pins (inner, outer and intermediate). The selector motor looks newer than the pinbank as well. I can only guess that something happened to t...

Thank you for the desoldering tips and advice! I was thinking the same thing about trying to practice on another plug first…I just need to find one. When you say index keys, you mean the small bump between the 11 and 1 plug, correct? They are both present. As for the miswired plugs – I’m not sure if...

Good news is I found the 2250 wire diagram and printed it off to compare side by side to the 2150. I used my "key" from the current incorrect selections to help map out the plug changes I need to make. I don't think I'm allowed to post the wiring diagrams here, but I have my new plug wire ...

I'm going by the pins on the memory bank, and that's good to know about the interchange of parts. I'm starting to think the casing is from a later series.

Do you think it's possible to re-wire it to select the proper letters or do I need to find an original 2150 selector casting?

Selector plug 3 and 4 are correct. Selector plug 3 are the numbers and plug 4 is a female plug that can only fit one way.

When I switched 1 and 2 the letters were still off but in a different order. It looks like I may have to re-wire the letter plugs.

Thanks, checking the wiring diagram now. It looks like the selector casting is a lot cleaner than the latch pin assembly. Now I'm wondering if it could be a different casting from another machine. I'll let you know what I find out...

Hi everyone, I've been lurking on here and a couple other forums for a while now, but can't figure this problem out. I've been restoring a 2150 for the past few weeks and I have both the manual and Harold Hagen's Wurlitzer Reference book v2 which have been very helpful. I've had the amp rebuilt, I c...
