All small bulbs around the number buttons does not work. My I ordered new bulbs and holders but I was wondering, if these are like Christmas lights; If one is out does that break the circuit causing all of them not to light-up?

Probably not in series. Pretty sure they are all in parallel and thus
all are burned out.

Hello Scotty,

Rowe Ami for many years have used 14 volt lamps for their sound to ligh
units and around attract panels etc.

Make sure that you get the correct lamps and not 12 volt versions tha
would overload any of the sound to light units.

Some of the lamp holders will take replacement miniture wedge lamps
some other are fixed into the lamp holder.

Please let us know how you get on.

Regards
Alan

Hi Alan,

Nice to see you are still around Usenet! You know I was in the UK twice
now in the past four years - we should get together for a beer the next
time I am over - if I had a clue where you were!

PS, if you are ever in Vancouver, Canada give me a call and drop by the
tiny shop (only 5,500sq ft) if you have time!

Hi John,

That sounds a good idea, please let me know when you next over here.
I am in Sheffield which is just slightly north of the midlands.

All,
I replaced all bulbs and sockets and my Jukebox lit up like a Christmas Tree, however what does not light up is the number selection buttons. none of the numbers lightup, Is this right? I find it hard to believe that the numbers don't light up, there are no bulbs under them but a circuit card, Can anyone comment?

If the buttons are translucent then they would be lit by a nearby
fluorescent bulb...which is how most jukeboxes lit them.
