Hi Guys,
Although I'd rather this be a "look at my first project pin" thread, I have been asked to have a look at a jukebox for a family member. It was purchased not working around 5 years ago, apparently it was working one day and not the next. I found an original (not reprint) manual with schematics on ebay which has and will come in very handy.
At this stage he just wants to see it working, and there is plenty of broken wires and damaged wiring that needs replacing, although I hope to get it operational and then work on some of the cosmetics. I've been cleaning and polishing things as I go if I have some downtime waiting for parts etc.
I need globes and tubes for it, the internal mains wiring uses US plugs which I have ordered so I can replace them as they are in a very bad state! Also realised the other night that there is no "F" key, but rather 2 "L"'s! I've found a parts company that is wrecking 8 of this model so hoping he can help me out, just waiting to see what else I'll need before I place an order.
There's a bit of rust as you can see. I've invested in some Ranax which seems to work wonders, but I'm a bit concerned about using it on the chrome front mesh. Any suggestions? Re-plating is not out of the question but not going to go to those extremes until I can prove I can get it working. Lucky I know where Daniel lives! lol
