TECH - 1972 or 73 Seeburg SX-100 Marauder jukebox info needed
I recently aquired this neat little jukebox and have a couple of
questions: First, is there any way to make this particular model set up for free play or are they coin op only? Also, there is a wire that is not attached near the solenoid that cancels the selection buttons after you press them, but I can't tell what the wire needs to be connected to? Is anybody willing to look at their juke from similar production years and see if we can figure out where this wire goes? I can e-mail you a picture if it will help. This machine plays by manual intervention, but so far will not play by using the keypad. If I can get the missing wire thing figured out, I think it just needs cleaned and re-lubed. Thanks - John |

For troubleshooting help, check out Tony Miller's Seeburg site:
http://home.pacbell.net/fmillera/ He designed some circuitry of this machine. As to free play here's how to do it: Unplug jukebox power cord from wall outlet. Locate the "Black Box" (which is the pricing unit). With a 1/4" nutdriver, remove the small plug-in pricing board by simply unplugging it. Reapply power. Machine is now on free play. |

Locate the "Black Box" (which is the pricing unit). Hi Ken - I have looked for the black box, but apparently not hard enough as I have not found it yet. Maybe it is down under the player near the amplifiers and what not. I do see the coin mech, but nothing that resembles a "black box." Shouldn't it have quite a few wires going in and out of it?

If you tell me where the other end of the wire connects, I may be able to help. And contrary to the other reply to your request, I did not have anything to do with the design of this machine, but I did work for Seeburg during the time they were built. Hi Tony - the wire in question is white with a green and brown stripe on it. I have noticed there is another wire coded the same color that goes to about the mid point of the song selector buttons, specifically to a set of contacts. The wire that is off is very near the solenoid that "resets" the song selection buttons after you press them. If I were to bet money, I would guess it goes to that solenoid, but I learned long ago on electronics its best to not gamble. As far as where do they lead to, well... they are encased in grey plastic conduit if you will, so it is diffcult to tell where they lead. I can definitley see one goes to the lower portion of the mechansim on the right hand side of the jukebox. This mechansim has a counter on top of it (if that helps) and the wire goes into a 12 wire molex type plug. I cannot see in the harness where another green and brown wire comes out. If you don't mind, I will e-mail you a pic so you can see what I am seeing. Thanks for your help - John |

My best suggestion would be to get the service manual for the machine and figure out where it goes. Contrary to what another poster has stated, this machine does not use the black box, it uses an SPU5. With credit on the SPU5, the latch bar solenoid should energize, permitting selections to be made. If the latch bar solenoid does not energize, and the wire you're talking about does not connect to it, chances are your problem is in the SPU5. If you remove the cover, you should see a circular metal piece with six snap-action switches on it. Flip one of them to the opposite position, and the latch bar solenoid should energize. The switches are flipped by the solenoids at the bottom of the unit. Each is connected to a coin switch. Cheers, Tony Miller |

Can't help from that description. My best suggestion would be to get the service manual for the machine and figure out where it goes. Am I better off buying the actual service manual or do you sell a book that has what I need? John |

The operation of the seletor and pricing unit is in it, but the selector schematic is not (although the pricing unit is). If interested, go to: http://home.pacbell.net/fmillera/books.htm The manual is available from: www.alwaysjukin.com or www.victoryglass.com Cheers, Tony Miller |
