6 How To Easily Clean Electrical Contacts on Seeburg Jukebox

I demonstrate how to clean the electrical contacts on a Seeburg Jukebox Mechanism. Every Seeburg Juke I have picked up had dirty black greasy contacts on the Mech. Cleaning the contacts is quick and easy when you have the mechanism out of the jukebox. Obviously there are other ways to clean contacts (burnishing tool) and different brands of cleaners. I am showing you how I clean mechanism contacts using the cleaner they sell at my local electronics store. This also works on contacts in other parts of the jukebox.

My brother thinks that contact cleaner is bad for the brown bakelite in the contact stacks. This opinion is from pinball repair forum comments. Dunno. I don't soak the contacts and the cleaner evaporates in about 3 seconds.

Footnote:

These videos are numbered starting with 1 when I bought it. Bought a Seeburg STD3 Sunstar Jukebox for $50 from a storage unit. Documenting this Seeburg Jukebox Restoration Project from the start - no script - just rambling. Goal is to help other novice Seeburg Jukebox restorers get a feel for what I am doing.

I am not a professional jukebox repair person. I am just learning by doing and reading the manuals. I also get tons of advice from the yahoo group seeburg forum. I might provide bad advice unintentionally. Hoping you just might learn a thing or two.
