Problem with Wurlitzer OMT CD

[jdemarti]

I’m really hoping someone can help troubleshoot the cd100 omt. When I turn on the jukebox I get the 0000 on the display but that's it. The carousel will not spin when I first turn on the jukebox. The keyboard responds, and the carousel will turn when I manually push the lever.  I can’t seem to get the scc into programming mode by flipping the switch and pressing LT. When I try that I hear a relay click, but the display quickly flashes and remains at 0000.  K7 and k8 switches seem intact. I installed a new battery into the SCC and checked that the carousel lam is lit. Not sure what else to do. Any help is appreciated.

these jukes where notorious for bad solder joints and sketchy connections.

try pulling all the plugs and just reseating them. often that will get them going again.

failing that, turn the juke off...apply a slight side pressure to a connection and turning it on and seeing if one of them might have a bad connection. if you find one that pressing on it makes it work, you are going to have to pull that board and resolder the connector. the solder is really thin and hard on some connectors and vibrations from the music is enough to crack them and make them intermittent.

Thanks Shawn

I found that the Selection Control Computer is bad. Got my hands on another SCC to test and the jukebox came alive.  Do you know of any place in the U.S that sells or repairs these computers?

I don't sorry, I'm in canada so I don't know much of repair places in the US.
