Tech help: Rock ola # 1448
Juke was working correctly before i moved it from one side of the room
to the other side. Problem now is record sits and spins constantly after being played and will not return back into the record rack. The sound goes off after the records ends too. I moved the tone arm manually at the end of the record and can hear the trip switch clicking in, but the record doesn't return to the record rack and justs sits and spins constantly there. If i turn the juke off and back on the sound comes back and i can manually pick up the tone arm and place it at the start of the record and it will play through, but when the tone arm reaches the end of the record it will not return the record back to the record rack and the sound goes off again. I turn the juke off and back on again and the sound returned back on again. I again manually placed the tone arm back at the start of the record and tried to press the record trip button located on the back of the juke to see if the record would be rejected and returned back to the rack. When i pressed the reject trip button on the back of the juke the sound went off again and record played through to the end but again just sits there and spins constantly. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Vic Camp |

I can't say that I know much about the Rock ola, but I had the exact same
issue with a Seeburg a week ago. It turned out to be just a leaf switch that "looked" to be making contact but wasn't. On the Seeburg it was in a stack of leaf switches on the player unit. The move could have knocked one out of adjustment. wrote in message ups.com... Juke was working correctly before i moved it from one side of the room to the other side.

Do yo have the service manual? If not, contact me direct, it wll make
the job easier. I see three places to look at. First make sure that the gripper motor is plugged in and see if you can rotate the shaft that comes out the bottom of it. Second, check all the plugs that go into the control box and power supply, make sure they are seated tight. Third, check the operation of the micro switches on the cam. Charlie |
