Hello Lilly,

Welcome to the forum. I only work on Rowe Ami but somebody may be along soon.

How long is since you had the jukebox serviced? when did it have a new styli fitted?

To help to point you in the right direction can you amend your forum profile so it shows what country you live in.

Regards
Alan

hi alan, thanks so much for getting back to me, iam in uk! I hate to sound stupid but do you mean the needle?  :dizzy:all I know it doesn't play half as loud as it use too, to be honest I had someone come down too look at it a while back to fix a fault on it, he done it but I was not impressed with him, and would sooner find someone else if possible,iam in Essex thanks again  :angel:

Hello Lilly,

Yes I mean the needle, also check all the connections from the wires that connect to the cartridge back to the amplifier input.

I would check out Len Beddow he is a roving jukebox engineer from Staffordshire but undertakes repairs from all of the UK and Scotland. I do all Len's Rowe Ami board and amplifier repairs.
To get his details on google just type in "Len Beddow jukebox" also say that you have talked to me online.

Regards
Alan
