   > This jukebox is 3 hours away from me, I'm going out on Sunday to pick it up   
   for 200 bucks.  It's in good shape.  It's been in a family home since 1978,   
   maintained by a jukebox tech whenever it had problems.  Anyway the owner gave   
   it to his bed\st    
   friend when he retired and moved out of state.  The loaded it into a truck and   
   drove it in town from one house to another.  I don't know if they secured the   
   mechanism or not.  Anyway, it was working fine before the move but now that   
   it's in it's new    
   location, it's stuck on scan.  Turn it on and it scans till you turn it off.    
   He said he tried to call the jukebox tech his friend used but he's retired too   
   and the only guy in his town that says he can work on jukeboxes told him he   
   doesn't work on    
   Seeburgs.  I've got pics of this jukebox and I can't see too much from them   
   but nothing looks bent/messed up.  I'm ordering a manual but I'll have this   
   jukebox here before the manual arrives.  Any idea of what might have been   
   bumped to cause this?  A    
   microswitch?  Maybe a short?  Anyway, let me know what you guys think.   
      
   Probably not your issue, but I had a Seeburg that kept scanning last week.    
   Turned out there was a burnt fuse.
