   Rockola 467 only selects B side

   Hi all,   
      
   I'm new to the group. I'm a vintage radio and record player guy. A lady asked   
   me to look at her jukebox, so here I am.   
      
   I have two issues on which I am now stumped.   
      
   1) The box will only select the B side of the record. It does just what it is   
   supposed to do and it's fun to watch it work.  However, the readout carriage   
   just flips past the little lever on the wobble wheel when an A side is   
   selected. When it flips past    
   it arcs so I'm assuming there is voltage where is should be.   
      
   2) The audio sounds like wind blowing into a microphone. I wonder what type of   
   component might need to be checked out.   
      
   Thanks so much from South Carolina
