How funny, I was just dealing with this problem. The issue for me was in the relay. Anyway. starting with the LPC series, Seeburg made their jukeboxes native 33 1/3 play instead of 45, and it uses an auto speed to change the frequency applied to the motor when a 45 is played. Try cleaning the contac...

It's not that I don't distrust the seller, having bought driveline parts and keys from him before. It's just that this particular needle seems to be a pain unless they're NOS :roll: . I figure that I'll give these needles a shot sometime in February, maybe they'll work great, and it never hurts to h...

So I was looking at needles4jukeboxes.com and I found this (hopefully the right screenshot). Does anybody have any experence with these?

I managed to figure it out, there was a spring that should have been attached to the bottom of the pawl to reset it after every use. When I set it in I guess I must have missed it, but that got it working again, no adjustment needed!

The way it was put on free play was the previous owner took the subtract pawl out and taped it to the side, so I figured it was easy enough to fix. I have a service manual at the house, so I'll post back later to report if it works or not. Thanks Ron!

I've slowly been getting this jukebox back to what it should be (as time allows anyway), and I decided to switch it from free play back to coin op, but I have somewhat of an issue. The subtract pawl I believe doesn't reset after it subtracts a credit unless you manually push it back. Now I'm pretty ...

I adjusted the contacts as the instructions said, and the jukebox is playing records perfectly, both A and B sides. Thank you both very much for your help! Oh, and I noticed a fuse soldered on the mech, could this be an issue in the future?

Thanks Ron, I see a trip to Hobby Lobby in my future. I'll probably do it this weekend, because I have a busy week and it would probably be better to do it all at once than to stop and go. And just wondering, how should I move it? I would prefer not to just pull it to the middle. The service outlet ...

It was blown, and its the main 6 1/4 amp fuse at the bottom left of the cabinet, so nothing was powered on the jukebox

I moved the clamp off of the record which didn't do anything to it, the record moved slightly off center, so I pulled it out so I could set the clamp back down. After that my neighbor happened to see me messing with it, so he came up and asked if he could help. Since he's an electrician I figured he...

Thank you a lot Rob, that seemed to stop the humming while it played, but now I have another issue. After about 30 minutes of playing I chose a B side of a record and it started to slow down and eventually it stopped, so I hit the reject button and it rejected it. It moved on to another record on th...

When I take the arm off the hum stops. That does seem true, when its playing a LP the humming is softer and slower.

It is currently set for free play, and it sounds the same on A1 as it does on V8. What exactly do you mean by cabinet? As far as I can tell it comes from all 6 speakers

We have a LPC-480 that has a hum when it plays music. The amplifier has been recapped, and in another jukebox it doesn't hum, which leaves the amp out. I also know that it isn't the speakers or the wire that leads to the speaker because they don't hum when hooked up to a stereo. That makes me think ...
