Question
Hi Rodger,

           I would like to know if you can help me with this issue.  My 1972 Seeburg Jukebox was working fine until today.  Now, it picks the record, sometimes plays it for a few seconds and most of the time drops the record right after and goes back to the normal position like if the record was played.  I hope you can give me some information about this problem.
Many thanks in advance,
Esteban

Hi Esteban,

Well I am going to have to direct you to a very helpful manual for this, as I cant guess at this point. There are referance books on troubleshooting and actual repairs to problems like this that can be really helpful. Go to this site:

Expertise

I am an expert on old coin operated machines, slot machines, trade stimulator's, jukeboxes, old arcade machines, etc. I have been identifying these for people who respond to my web site listed below, for a few years now. In almost all cases I am able to tell them about their old coin operated machines, the year, the value, and other general information about their machines. I do not know much about soda vending machines, coin banks, or scales, but I will try to help you with these if I can.

Experience

I bought my first slot machine, a .50 Cent Mills Black Cherry in 1969 and have been hooked from that time, I still have that Slot machine! Before that I found a open barrel full of old scraped jukebox wall boxes behind a restaurant, I wanted them all but never took a one of them. Anything that took a coin drove me nuts!
