If you can press 8 & 9 as a middle digit, then check the ferris wheel numbering to see if 8 & 9 are used as last numbers for any records. You might have the wrong title strip holder that have the 8 & 9... Just a thought - as I say I do not have the manual...

I did a check on manuals around that period and there are only 8 selection banks of 20 pins each for 160 selections. If you look at the schematic you should see a diagram for the selection disc (the pins that flip back and forth) - note that the wipers are counted from 0 through 7 - giving you 8 total wipers. Then note that there are *ten stopping points where the hammers can go in or out to make the side selection. So, your machine IS working correctly - there are no selections such as 128, 129, 228, 229, 188, 189, 288, 289, 199, 299,..., etc. simply are not allowed as the basket is not set up for 100 45s... Your title rack should agree with the above - no numbers ending with 8 or 9 are shown.

Ah, I was not aware that model was digital - sorry. http://www.victoryglass.comdoes show that they have a service manual (37-5761) for the 496 series and that would be a good place to start.

Like you, I have been searching for months trying to find somebody with a complete 496 manual but still cannot find one anywhere. I did however find on the last page of my 490/494 manual a single page titled "496 Pricing Procedure" (Why this info is in with the 490/494 is a mystery to me.) and at the bottom there is information about the Dip Switch Settings for the S3 Control Unit. Switch 7 says "Mech. 200/160 Selections. On your juke, possibly the dip switch is in the wrong position which causes an ERR message on the display when you select a selection with 8 or 9 at the end. Just a hunch, I really don't know, but you might try switching it and see if you can then select your full 200 selections. If you want a copy of that page, just let me know and I'll scan it for you. My 496 is actually an XCD model with a Poineer CD player. The carousel on mine has a nylon strip blocking the slots for 108 and on. I can't read the rest of the numbers because the strip is blocking the numbers. Twenty slots total are blocked off, probably for selections from the CD player. I've been trying to find a complete manual so I can use the CD selections.... I just can't seem to figure out how to set it up to play CD's. I just get ERR message when I try to select push a button with one of the 5,6,7,8 numbers on the title strip holder. I can't figure out what combinations are needed to make the CD player select. Sure could use some help with this from anyone with one of these Rockola 496 jukes! ---Jim in Vermont- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - that was it the #7 dip setting had to be changed thanks jimw now the fun part to make it look good again . while im posting Does anyone have any of the wire record holders for this juke lying around have about a dozen or so with broken plastics |
