Default TECH: Seeburg M100A Motor problem

I need some help. I have a Seeburg M100A with the original 6 wire
motor. I can't seem to get the motor to start. I have the
manual from victory but that doesn't help much. When I turn
it on I get both lights at the mech. as well as the florescent.
Also If I throw one of the selection pins, the system will
start to hum. Also if I throw the maintenance switches I will
also get the same hum. It all seems to be working but I just
get no motor turn. Also if I throw the reversing switch I do
see action on the reversing coil. Is their a way that I can
check for voltages on the motor? Any help would be appreciated.

Best Regards
Nick

Nick:

Don't leave power applied for very long when the motor isn't running.

First, be sure the shaft turns very freely. Lubricate as necessary. If so,
get it into the run mode and see if the motor will run when manually
started. Short string around the shaft if accessible, I don't recall the
exact configuration of the A, pull it smartly and see if it continues. If
it runs, then the start/run capacitor is likely bad.
