Seeburg 100c Selector issues

This was my first jukebox that I purchased 34 years ago and other than a few minor issues has never given me any major problems until recently. It's still on "coin" and when I deposit the coin it registers as it should. I'll push a letter button followed by the number button and it cancels out but does nothing. If I move the switch in the left rear to scan, the carriage moves as it should from one side to the other. If I remove the top half of the back door and move the pins the carriage will move to that record, play it completely and put it back in the rack. Any suggestions as to what might be happening here? Thanks for your help!!!

Do you have the Service Manual for this phonograph ? If a "legit copy", it will contain the "trouble shooting guide". My first thought is that the CCU is "struggling", ( have you oiled it in the last---years ?) thus it may have blown the fuse. This MAY be marked as either, a 1 or 2 amp, slow blow. I suggest that you not replace it with anything larger then 1.6 amps, as you can "burn-up" SA Unit coils with anything larger !

Hello Ron, Yes I do have a legit copy of the service manual but have misplaced it and looking for it and I remember it had a troubleshooting guide in the back of it. It's been a long time since I've oiled it and thanks for bringing that to my attention. I will look into these fuses and see if one is blown as you suggested. I answered your private message I hope you received it. Thanks again
