Problem with Seeburg SPS160

[jeffinmn]

I've been working on a Seeburg SPS160. When I got to it the mech was stuck. I got it unstuck and lubricated the areas I could get to and put the proper oil in the fill spouts on the motor. The unit worked well for about 2 hours. Then it started rejecting records after about 30 seconds. The magnet looks to be properly located near the switch. Then when the mech is moving to pickup a selection there is a click when the mech is supposed to stop and pickup a record but it keeps going to the right end of the record rack, past the last record. The mech stops there, tries to pickup a record which isn't there of course, and then parks itself.

I have a Seeburg V200 that I recapped the selection receiver and amp and lubricated the mech as well. I've also worked on a Seeburg R. I'd appreciate some direction as to what is causing these two problems. I haven't worked on a Seeburg jukebox that has a digital control center.

I don't work on "digital" Seeburgs either but mechanically they are pretty much the same as earlier models. Clean up and check the tormat sense plugs/sockets in the first instance - Ron has posted specific instructions on how to do this which you should easily be able to find.
