This 1979 IBM Selectric II (non-correcting) wasn't working at all when I got it. Some investigation revealed that the plug hadn't been wired properly! I spent several nights cleaning it out, flushing and lubricating some of its moving parts, and was overjoyed when it kicked into life and began to type. Here is a demonstration of the typewriter in action. I hope to make another video showing how I brought it back to life.
I have yearned for a Selectric for a long time. Last year, I bought three of them, but only one showed any signs of life. Now, all three have working motors, but two of the machines need more work to get them working. The one in the video is a bit dirty, and the outer case has seen better days, but it works a treat!
