Check the keyboard connections. Open the top cover and look just below from the top. You will see two ribbon cables. Make sure they are fully inserted. Are any of the keyboard lights flashing?

You have to reconnect the cables. In the four corners unmderneath you will see slots. Push a small screwdriver up inside and gently pry the release pin out aqnd at the same time lift the cover. Do this for all four corners and remove the complete cover asm. You can now reach the cables and connect them.

Turn typewriter on and it sounds like it is spinning the printwheel and all the lights come on and then nothing. It was just working 5 minutes ago.

When the lights come on do they all stay on or flash? Are there any beeps? Need some more info.

Humming noise after turning typewriter on

If that is all that happens, no lights, no beeping you probably need a power supply or a board. If there are lights and beeping we need to know what it's doing.

It sounds like your keyboard is going bad. You can try my tip under WW1000 or you can contact Geo. Beyers Co. @ 800-392-8085 for a rebuild.

Wheelwriter 1000 beeps when I try to type!

Could be a few things, board, power supply, keyboard or printer.
But there are some things you can check, remove the printwheel and look for debris in that area, unplug and replug the keyboard, if you are really adventurious remove the cover and keyboard and look for paper clips or staples on or under the pc board.

Typewriter only beeps and lights blink. Nothing else.

the beeping and the lights are error codes, meaning the machine will need repair
