20 Most Recent Wurlitzer Jukebox CD Player - Page 9 Questions & Answers

I had this problem with my juke box, The rod thet the cd changer goes up & down on gets moisture on it & in return the rod gets small pits of rust on it. I bet you dont have this problem in the summer its always a problem in the winter months with mine.
You need to spray some wd40 on the rod & clean rod with steel wool then you may have to ease the cd holder up in order to clean the rod under the changer.
Give it a go should work.

Wait a few minutes for the unit to warm up and the percolator will function normally....about 10 - 15 minutes is needed...

You probably have bad solder points on the main board causing the intermittent operation after it warms up.

email me at [email protected] will send u service manual

Hello,

Place the service switch into service, SERVICE MODE should be displayed on the keyboard display.
Type 31 and the display will show PROGRAM INIT enter the CD numbers that you have changed and press the popular button after each number.
After you have entered all the CD changes place the service switch back to normal and the initialization will begin.

Wow. This is a tough question to answer because it may have no answer. Listen to Alabama's Jukebox in my mind. Is that the hum you hear? It's why it's a jukebox. I have a replica that plays MP3 CD's and it's an option you can select.

If you have a sound when the needle hits the record, I'm not sure there is a fix for that.

THE WURLITZER JUKEBOX WILL CONTINUE TO PLAY SONGS AS LONG AS ONE OR MORE, SELECTING PINS (THERE ARE 200 IN THE 2900 ONE FOR EACH SONG. THE PINS ARE IN LOWER SECTION OF THE CASE. BETWEEN THE SPEAKERS , AND LOWER DOOR.)
REMOVE LOWER BACK DOOR. WATCH THE ARM THAT STOPS ON THE NEXT RECORD, BECAUSE THE PIN IS UP. AFTER STOPPING ON THE PIN, THE ARM PUSHES THE PIN DOWN. THAT IS THE NORMAL OPERATION. IF THE PIN, IS NOT PUSHED DOWN, IT WILL PLAY THAT OR ANY OTHER SONG THAT HAS A PIN IS RAISED UP. THE PINS ARE THE MECHANICAL MEMORY FOR THAT JUKEBOX.
TURN OFF POWER, ==PUSH ALL PINS DOWN== THE SONGS WILL STOP PLAYING. THEN MAKE A SONG SELECTION. THE ONE PIN WILL POP UP THE MACHINE SHOULD PLAY THAT SONG.
WATCH THE ARM THAT STOPPED TO PLAY THE SONG, PUSH THE PIN DOWN. THAT IS THE SEQUENCE OF THE 2900 MACHINE,
WHAT CAN GO WRONG IS AS FOLLOWS. ==THE ARM DOES NOT PUSH PIN DOWN== THE ARM MISSES PIN== THE ARM NEED OIL, IT IS NOT LUBRICATED.==.

Hello Robert,

You say you have a R-89 jukebox and the turntable motor is running, I assume that the pulley on the top of the motor is clearly seen turning. Is the turntable belt loose or missing?
From your message I am not sure that your jukebox is a R-89, could it be a 1978/1979 R-82 or R-83 that uses an idler wheel.
On this model the turntable motor is 110 volts AC.
If the above is true check that the idler wheel and the linkage spring is pulling the idler wheel against the turntable and the motor shaft.

It is more likely to be the keyboard button. It's a bit tricky to take apart but it works on capacitance across a gap on the keyboard pcb so if you can clean both surfaces of pcb and button pad it sometimes improves it.

Ensure that the Jukebox is at level with the floor. If not, vibrations can cause the CD "jumping". As an effect the player will stop, restarting after few seconds.
If that is the problem , you will get more troubles while playing songs at louder volume.

If that is not the problem, then the lens may need cleaning. This can be done using a cleaning CD or accessing lens and using QTips and isopropyl alcohol to clean it. The operation may affect warranty status, if you put too much force on the lens pickup you can also damage the disk drive.

You can buy an iPod kit from Wurlitzer with docking bay that plugs into the amp.

Try Riki . Google jukebox repairs Durham.

The actual light tube slides sideways into the socket and then is rotated 90 degrees so it clicks (quarter turn). It is physically impossible so wurlitzer added a black plastic cap at the top and bottom of the tube with a bit sticking out that you can use to turn the tube. So look at the very top and bottom of the actual light tube and try turning the black part.
