Hi Paul,
I am not exactly sure I understand what is happening--
Are you saying a selector pin is moved to the selected position, but the basket motor fails to start ?
If so, and this is the RockOla system that had a "scan control" unit, it would appear that it's not getting a start pulse--
It's my GUESS, that this stepper was designed to be used on the earlier "washer" motor run system, and it needs that retrofit wire installed to go to the scan start coil--
Where did you "read" this info--and was there no further info, on how to do it ??
Do you have the Service Manual--this should be covered there--

hi Ron the select pin moves to selected position but basket motor fails to start
the info found on the stepper was in a search for the difference between
the 1725/1738 at jukebox ~world i only have the manual for the tempo 2
with the 1725 stepper it works older models but later 120 selections
it would need the scan line re fit not able to get a stepper manual as yet
would it be the 1725 or 1738 on a search of 1725 stepper image there
is as silver colored one numbered 1725.8.2 with the scan socket for 120 select
thanks paul

Paul,
Contact Hildegard at jukebox-world ( listed above in the "where to find---" section). I would be suprised if she did not have the paperwork on this-- Ron Rich

Hi Paul,
Sorry--round and round in circles--you might get both schematics and compare them--?? Also you might post this question, on other lists --
Let us know if you find out -- Ron Rich
