Thanks, John! Where exactly is that lithium battery located?

Regards,

Eric


Take the cover off the computer that is on the inside back wall of the
jukebox. It is the round thin cylindrical metal thingy soldered
(typically) to the circuit board.

Looks something like this:

That supplier is a high on pricing though. The part number for the
battery should be visible, you can search for a supplier based on that..

John - I soldered a 2xAA (3v) battery unit to the terminals and it's holding steady! Thanks again for the insight.

I hope you have that battery pack off the board and out of the way -
long wires and store in a zip-lock baggie. Most non-lithium batteries leak.

Best to use a lithium instead of regular Alkaline AAs - you will forget
about the AAs and they WILL leak!

John,

I picked-up a black plastic 2x AA holder along with velcro. Soldered the wires to the board and routed the holder to the outside of the housing where its affixed using the velcro. Easy to access/replace. I didn't bother with the plastic bag, because we are inside the unit frequently changing CDs, etc. I'll keep an eye on it though!

Regards,

Eric
