This 1959 Rock-ola 1475 st has been working great up until a few weeks ago. Now it won't recognize a paid or free credit, but it makes all of the same sounds it made when it was working. I have a manual for my rock-ola but my accumulator is different from the one in the manual. Any help would be greatly appreciated. See attached pictures...

Hi Dukester,
OK--it appears that you may have a dual pricing unit, and an half-dollar adapter on it ?--but what's your problem ?? Ron Rich

Yes. I believe your right, it has a dual pricing unit. When I put in coins or press free play it doesn't give me any credits. It was working great until a few weeks ago.

Dukester,
Start with the 8/10 A slo blo fuse--Izzit good ?? DO NOT replace it, if bad--fix the "stuck" coin switch FIRST ! Ron Rich

Dukester,
"--seems OK-- ain't no "seems" here--it either iz, or ain't ! MUST be checked with a meter, or Itralian fuze testor !
Coin switches are on the bottom of the coin mechanism. Ron Rich

Ron, Sorry, the fuse is good. There is no switch on the bottom of the coin mechanism. I have attached a picture with an arrow pointing to the only switch on the unit. The switch only has two positions, I have tried both with no success.  |

I also looked at the bottom of the part that the coin goes through. No switch on the bottom of that either.

Dukester,
The photo is of the "pricing unit"-- The part the coin goes thru (coin mechanism), has GOTTA have, a set of, three, or four, switches on it, for it to work ! Or, the phono has somehow been "modified" for free play. How do you know the fuse is good--you can not tell by just looking at it !!

Ron, I got a meter and tested the fuse. Are you referring to these switches? See attached picture. If so, the third switch from the left does make contact and sends a signal to the "pricing unit". The pricing unit makes a buzzing sound but no credits are given.  |

Ron,
There is not a fuse on the coin mechanism but the fuse on the pricing unit is buss/mdl 8/10 other end 250volt.
