[Jukebox-list] Seeburg Pricing Unit Heating up

[Jeremy Agema]

Hi Nathan, Congratulations on getting a SS-160. I personally favor Seeburgs 
and the SS-160 is a good mix of style and "newer" technology in my opinion. 
And I recently resurrected one, it's one of my favorites (there are so many!)

First, do some research - check out the archives as there is a wealth of 
information to be had. Second - get a service manual, a parts and operation 
manual would help too.

I am guessing that this is your first juke?

If you are serious about fixing it, consider Tony's newest book "Seeburg 
console-era jukeboxes" Available from Tony's site 
http://home.pacbell.net/fmillera/index.htm

Also Ron Rich has a great book on the Seeburg mechs - available on Tony's 
site and other juke sites.

I purchased all of Tony's and Ron's books. I don't have all the jukes they 
cover but they are great reference material for future purchases.

As far as your immediate concern with the solenoids, unplug the wire from 
the coin rejector and see if the solenoids stop operating - sounds like a 
stuck coin switch or someone's hack job.
