If the reading bounces around while pushing on the microswitch actuator after hearing the click then I suggest you change the micro-switch. The readings should be steady once the switch has 'clicked' (either way). The microswitches that control the selection and cancel of the pins are faulty.Ĭheck all the machines microswitches with an ohm-meter. Here are the wiper blades and their rings, you can see these from under the front of the mechanism towards the center.clean the copper rings with an ink eraser and check that the wipers have some pressure on the rings once remounted. The wiper ring blades that connect the ferris wheel drum electricals to the machine are dirty. Removing & replacing pins on AMI jukebox memory. I think the pictures below are pretty clear, but can expand if requested. Wash the pins in solvent along with the metal spring clips and the holes they fit in (Q-tip or similar) to get them moving smootly with no trace of gumminess. Gummed selection pins due to the use of oil or WD-40 - these must not be lubricated! Here are pictures of the take-apart and reassembly process.

This is both a fire and safety hazard! You MUST replace any brittle wiring within the jukebox! This is a relatively easy job as this wire is normally just used for the lights and the amplifier, and can easily be traced, and replacement wire installed.Īs for the power cord, be sure to flex it close to your ear and if you hear any crinkling sounds from inside the wire cable, then it too MUST be replaced.Ĭommon problems with the AMI jukeboxes - including the Continental series - include: The "lamp" cord used in most of the 40's to 60's models is breaking down by now and you will see at the plugs or on the wire itself that pieces of the insulation are shattering off. AU) for this list!įirst looking at an older AMI/Rowe jukebox (prior to 1970's) the very first item to be checked is the condition of the electrical cords within the jukebox AND the power cord for signs of deterioration.
