Wurlitzer 3010 Override Relay circuit

Hi Ron,

As always, forgive my verbiage. I am novice with the electronics stuff.

I finally got back to this machine today and I am still stumped. Let's start from scratch with the readings I took today.

First the machine will cycle and play if I engage the switches on the override relay manually. Everything works perfectly. If a pin in the selector drum is up it catches, loads the record, plays. When I hit the reject button it cycles as it should until I manually release the switches on the override relay.

If no pins are up and I manually engage the override relay the mech rotates and the turntable motor comes on, but with no pin up it will operate until I release the override relay switches.

I had my meter this time and I double checked how I should be measuring.

There are two connections on the relay that I assume control the magnet that activates the switches attached to the relay.

With the power off and the meter set to OHMS I read a 0 between these two connections.

With power on and no pins up I read 30V DC on one side and -30V DC on the other side. With pin up, it reads the same.

I removed the drum and checked the continuity between the override switches. No breaks there.

The manual does not have an electrical sequence but checking a different manual it seems like getting voltage on both sides at rest and when a pin is activated is not what should be happening. I'm noting that the transfer switch is a part of this circuit.

I cleaned the override switches.

What am I missing here? If I can't get this fixed, is there anybody out there that I can send it to?

Thanks,

mark

I was trying to see what the sequence was on a working machine I have here.

At rest if I manually move the override switch, the record motor starts, but the mech does not turn as it does on the faulty machine and the "good" machine tells me that it does not like me manually operating the switch on the over ride relay.

Is the transfer switch a possible problem? The bad machine has two wires from the transfer switch that dead end into a plastic connector that looks like it should plug in somewhere, but I don't see a female counterpart anywhere.

Thanks,

mark
