SOURCE: ROCKOLA 480 HUMMING NOISE IN

Wow. This is a tough question to answer because it may have no answer. Listen to Alabama's Jukebox in my mind. Is that the hum you hear? It's why it's a jukebox. I have a replica that plays MP3 CD's and it's an option you can select.

If you have a sound when the needle hits the record, I'm not sure there is a fix for that.

SOURCE: THE TONE ARM ON MY ROCKOLA 459 SLIDES OVER THE RECORD WITHOUT PLAYING.

Hi
It sounds as if the tone arm has become unbalanced. Make sure the turntable is on a firm flat horizontal surface and at the opposite end of the arm from the needle there will be a weight and a means of altering the position of weight on the tone arm. This weight keeps the needle on the record but only lightly when positioned correctly. If positioned too far from the pivot post the needle will as you have experience skip virtually straight across the record. You need to adjust the weight so that the needle just sits in the groove and plays without being too heavy. It is best to use a record you are not too worried about for this testing as the test record can sometimes get scratched.
Hope this is helpful, if so would you please register that with Fixya

Hi I have a rockola 481 jukebox and when you turn it on a very loud deafening buzz constantly stays there ,if u play a record the overload light comes on. Dave

Can be from some mechanical parts, like small electromotors. Or from the supply power frecquency passing audio filters. Usually, changing condensers in power supply unit fix the problem.

Rock-ola 448 jukebox skipping how to repair

The stylus might be worn or of the wrong type. A simple tone arm needs a round stylus and if an elliptical type (intended for a long S-shaped tone arm) has been fitted by mistake it could skip.

If nothing is wrong there, the remaining conclusion is either the mechanism is maladjusted or the tonearm bearing has a tight spot. In that case the tone arm should be removed and the shaft examined under strong magnification and any irregularities carefully removed, eased, blended in using a very fine abrasive (12,000 - 20,000 grit) and then ensuring the shaft and bearing is thoroughly clean apply a little very light machine oil and reassemble and readjust the playing weight...
