Himmmmmmmm, I thought LED's lasted"forever"--that's what I read on the internet !!--and you know that anything there, HASTABE true !! Ron Rich I'm afraid the LED's in this Jukebox were sitting in an Irish pub, powered on since 1978 failure was inevitable :D However it's IR receivers that'...

Hi When free play is programmed in, the bottom two pins of the connecter that plugs into the service point of the credit unit need to be jumpered clones Hi, Thanks for the advice.... Got the FREE play working with a rear switch connected so it can be turned on or off, found some new/old stock IR LE...

Will keep that in mind thanks... I'm waiting on IR diodes LD242 to replace in the coin reader and carriage position wheel. Should then be in a position to test how it functions, hopefully

Fault was found to be VR202... It's the -5V voltage regulator, closeup seen in the top pic...

Nsm ES 160 Festival Jukebox NO -5V on main control board... this seems to be intermittent fault -5V Led was working, stopped, worked again and had now stopped Again?!
please advise?

Happy Paddy's Day

Your correct, that was the pay display, silly me, brain freeze under pressure :) I changed the -5V & +5V LED and soldered some tired looking joints.... Not 100% sure to be honest, might be intermittent fault... I inspected the coin IR diodes and some of then are blown and one fell apart in my ha...

ok all LEDs lighting and display working... But now displays "Err C 050 2" and "0101"

Was checking the ir photo diode that tracks the carriage movement and tidying some cables etc... Powered it up to hear a strange throbbing sound NOW...
NO display
-5V LED is not lighting

Nsm ES 160 Festival carriage moving from Left to Right but not selecting the record...

Any advice on this issue appreciated...

Hi Folks, I'm progressing the repair of my DOA Jukebox, She powers up now and displays "ERROR C", (believe this is related to coin board, probably only dirty IR LEDs)... Very happy to have got this far... My question is, what Transistors are Grounded to the Heat-shield? Or are all the tran...

Seem's more of a sales pitch than a pride of restoration / conversion... The Apple connection is already obsolete technology... and a lot of hassle to connect, looks ugly & pointless trying to CROWN an amazing Jukebox with a tatty iPad... He should have just installed a hidden Bluetooth preamp r...

Hi folks, this worked for me ON MY Perspex, It might not work for all... *So, please test an inconspicuous area before going full on, to ensure the perspex won't cloud. I used Cellulose thinners (from Halfords Ireland / UK) This very easily removed the Photo paint image from the plastic front withou...

Thanks Clones,

I've read that they are not needed, but wold be nice to have the protection, they work like a fuse to protect against power surge...
Bit like a spark gap in the old CRT tv's...
