Q&A about Seeburg jukeboxes:
My husband and I are tearing down a 100G jukebox to restore. It had been sitting neglected in a shed for years before we discovered it. We are stripping it down in stages each day. Most of the screws are resisting being removed, another indicator of being in the elements. We have removed the dome, but the side glass pieces don’t budge.
Hi, I am Kevin. I have a Seeburg 220SH. I have very little experience with electronics. About 10 years ago I was having selection problems and I contacted Ron Rich on a bulletin board and I ended up taking out and freeing up the clutch. After putting it back together the machine seems to be locked in scan mode.
Ron has also mentioned this a million times: "WD-40 should not be anywhere near a jukebox!" It has limited lubrication properties as its primary purpose is to displace moisture. It is also very difficult to control the application. It tends to cover everything, even when using the little red plastic hose.
Should the jukebox be a Seeburg brand, built from the 1949 model B, on up to the SMC models--do NOT tighten the 3 or 4 (depending on model) nuts holding the mechanism down, UNLESS, you add the 1/4 inch shims, under the mech frame, AND, you also install the two long shipping thumb {1/4-20} screws, (using the holes provided in them), into the ...
Usually it is the auto speed needing recapped, the motor run capacitor setting bad, or needed cleaning and lubrication. Usually a combination of all three. The reason the motor is stopping when the needle lands is because it uses the lower side of the capacitor in play and the higher in scan.
Turn the motor coupler by hand, while watching the record advance-- see if the record lift arm advances to the stop, or not--. Ron Rich. Ron Rich (board monitor) Millbrae (about 12 mi. South, of San Francisco),CA, USA. tflash9. New Member. Posts: 31. Seeburg SS160 Oct 5, 2021 at 4:07pm. Quote.
Already read once but read again. I got this STD160 Seeburg Vogue Juke (1976 I believe was the manuf. year) from someone who asked if I would look at it. I don't know the last time it worked. It won't play any selected records. I cleaned and lubricated the the mechanism, just scans twice and stops in it's home position.
To avoid all of the confusion-- here is the whole story in a "nutshell"--. Pickering made 3 different Seeburg cartridges that used the "wedge", or "shovel" style needles. The first one, regardless of the numbering on it, is easily identifiable by the fact it has no mounting, screw hole. It was designated as a "340" type cartridge.
Preforming the "Battery Trick", on a Tormat (TMU) equipped Seeburg allows one to determine if there is a read-out / sense/ (detent), problem. Once determined the read-out/sense is OK, one can address any write in problems. To preform this trick, properly, one needs a good flashlight, "D" cell. Smaller cells USUALLY work, but there are cases ...
