info on Wurlitzer 255 stepper

[bl]

Hi there!

New to the forum, although been looking thru the posts and looking forward to being part of it!

I recently acquired a Wurlitzer jukebox and 5207 wallbox (separate purchases), but the jukebox has a 255 stepper that was totally disconnected.  It's easy to find info on the 257, and connecting it looks relatively easy.  But the 255 I have has a 7 connection terminal board (only three on the 257) and a wire that comes out with three wires (maybe for the wallboxes?).   Does anyone have either the installation instructions and/or the schematic?   All info on the web says it's identical to the 257 except for the extra transformer for wallboxes.  BTW, six of the seven terminals have wires on them (under the chassis), but only one wire of the three wire cable goes to any other wiring in the stepper.  Two of them go nowwhere.

Thanks!

There are some pictures of a 255 here www.jukebox-world.de/Forum/Archiv/Wurlitzer/Wurlitzer257.htm

I'm not clear why yours should be different, unless it's had some sort of modification? Can you not trace where the additional wiring goes?

Thanks for the link for the photos!  Looking much closer at the bottom of the chassis, I spotted how someone elongated the terminal strip hole to accommodate the longer terminal board.  And per the other images of the 255, I can see they modified the wiring for the yellow wires going to terminal one somewhat.  I'll verify against the 257 schematic and the picture to put it back to what it should have been
