Preston,
You need a "new guy"--there is no Printed Circuit board ("PC board") in that model wall box ! ( ? )

Hi Ron, Did any of the Seeburg V200 Wall Boxes have PC boards. V3wa is on the glass housing assembly. The tech has the mechanism part. Preston--

Preston, the only things remotely similar to a pc board are the phenolic boards in the keyboard, credit unit and pricing board. None of these are on the wallbox cover and, in my experience, none have ever caused trouble.

Either get a better description from your 'tech" so that we can help you -or take Ron's advice and find someone else.

Hi Ron & Rob,Thank you both for your replies. It appears someone modified the wall box to function maybe for a solid state juke box?. I guess I need to replace original parts back into the unit. Your thoughts on what to do. Preston Syracuse NY.

Preston,
In that case, I would need to see what's "been done", in order to guess, what needed to bring it back---

Preston, that was most likely done by RJB in Mundelein, Illinois. they did a number of hack-ups like this to machines they sold for commercial operations back in the late 80's and 90's. The credit unit is the least troublesome section of those boxes so it seemed to be solution looking for a problem.

You can inquire about getting service doc's from them...good luck with that :-). In 1994 I bought a 201 from a closed retro location. It had been modded by them with component values obscured. They refused to provide any data and their suggestion was to pack up the defective selection receiver and ship it back to them for service. My response was "bullshit'. I stripped out that unit and reconstructed it with my own set of hacks.

If they are still in business they might be more cooperative by now given that the market for that sort of mod has declined.

If you can't get a working module, you will have to obtain the proper credit unit and rewire the unit as, or close to original. I can send a high-resolution scan of any of the 200's schematics, but you'll have to examine the unit to see what if any important sets of contacts have been removed.

A couple of shots of the insides would be helpful here.

Preston, FWIW, if you just want it to work and aren't interested in having it step-up and credit when coins are added, The contacts on the credit wheel simply ground the various connection so it should be simple to trace out the wiring and set up the box to run without the credit unit.
