Seeburg USC1 problems

Hi all,
I have a Seeburg USC1 juke that started acting up recently. It worked
great for a couple weeks, then track 103 refused to play. I cleaned all the
rivets under the tormat and everything worked fine. Yesterday however, the
juke decided it didn't want to play any more tracks. Any selection you
pick, it seems to register it, then the mechanism goes up and down the track
like it will load the record, but instead, it just goes to the right side of
the track and stops.
Any ideas?

Thanks,
Josh

1) check your sense cable coming from the tormat to the control center RCA
jack if it is dirty or not making a good connection or has a broken wire
it wont pick up the records

2) check all connections going to and coming from the black and grey boxes

3) after the above and it is slecting except the one try replacing the
grey box if you have a spare

hope this is a start

Where would I find the Detent switch? What does it look like?

Thanks, but it didn't fix it. The switch was filthy though so it did need
cleaning.

After I replace the RCA cable, if that doesn't clear it up, it's time to
look for a juke repair tech in Richmond, VA, if there is one

I did notice, if I unplugged the RCA cable, the tormat behaves the same
either way.
