Hopefully a question that Ron can address...I have a M100A that has the 45 upgrade (I purchased it this way) and it has been working great. In the last few days though it seems to be running "slow", more noticeable on some records than others. Would like to know what I can look at. Could not find any information in my repair manual for this unit. My guess would be that my motor is going bad but I would really like someone with knowledge steer me in the right direction. I have been told that the rpm's are adjustable but I have never heard that any of the 100 series had any adjustment for rpm's? Any help would be appreciated as this particular unit is one of my favorites that I own. Thanks, Rob  |

Sadly Ron is no longer with us. But I can easily visualise the reply he would have given you - when was that jukebox last oiled?

There's a lubrication chart in the manual and a "sticky" post on lubrication in the FAQs, is that what you followed? The motor itself also might need servicing, I doubt whether it's "gone bad" if it's still turning. There could also be a problem with the motor capacitor such that the motor is not developing quite enough torque but lubrication (or lack of it) is usually the favourite in this type of situation.

Thanks Norm…I did follow the procedures outlined in my repair manual…I did not consider the motor capacitor though since the motor is operating but I will certainly check that out.😁👍
