Hi Ron, an update on the TES. I gave it a good spray out with warm ammonia and a lot of gunk came out. That stuff works really well! Anyway, rinsed it, dried it and it has stopped the crazy selections in the 'A' section. It did however make its own R-0 selection on one occasion out of ten. The scena...

Hi Ron, once I win lotto (I plan to!) I will send you the plane tickets! It will be about a week before I can get to the jukebox, stay tuned please! What sort of ratio of ammonia to water is ideal? I suppose I can't really get a brush in to the contacts area, so will a good long soak remove the gunk...

Sorry guys, its a TSR1 and DCU1L6. I don't know whether they are modified at all. The TSR doesn't have all the tubes in it but I believe it doesn't have to as I don't have a remote wallbox? The TES has one of the counters missing and 3or 4 what looks like ballast resistors in its place, so there are...

Rob & Ron - thankyou both for the help, I have an easy answer for the buzzing I think. I enquired a little deeper as to how the V200 had been running at the end of the party and found out that they couldn't get credits any more and the coins weren't coming out. I pulled the slug rejector and the...

Hi Ron, well I didn't lose a finger but I've lost a running jukebox at the minute - not sure what happened really. The number 1 key swipe switch seems to work ok, no continuity with the switch out and continuity with the switch in on both sets of wires. I only had a digital meter to check with. So I...

Hi Ron, thanks for the reply - a wakeup call no less, I will check my health insurance first! Good point, I will start with the simple things first and check those connectors. If I need to check the slide switch, is it just a case of a continuity check with the machine off or do I need to measure a ...

Hi, I have the dreaded 'scans twice and stops without selecting' on all number 1's. All other number/letter combos seem ok. I have the manual that talks about cleaning the contacts in the switch (number 1 button switch I take it). I can't find any further info on that, is is easy to do? Do I have to...

Hi Ron, thanks for the reply - you come highly recommended! I accept that it's no longer available and as you say undoubtedly there are many things that have 'gone west' because 'we'll never need them again'. So I guess I'll get busy manufacturing. I have seen quite a bit of info on the net regardin...

Hi, I have a V200 that has been happily operating for some years. Over time, it has developed a liking for not unlatching an occasional letter or number key, which I manually unlatch by hitting another key - no big deal. Now it won't unlatch at all so I took a peek and this is where I hope you learn...
