I recently did a little work on the computer of my R86 and Rowe put a sheet of foam behind the circuit board but since it's 40 years old it was basically dust by now. I was wondering for anyone who has replaced this foam, what did you use?
Foam for Rowe Jukebox computer?

Awesome thanks! I was wondering about that but wasn't sure. Does make sense though since there is a cardboard sheet between the foam and the metal bracket. Actually I think in the wall box computer there's only a sheet of cardboard

Is the fish paper that sheet of thin gray cardboard they put between the foam and the metal bracket? If so I did save that before I threw the foam dust out.
"YES"
you just need get to an auto trimmer to buy some thin foam
the foam i buy has a cloth backing
buy enough to do all 3 boards in your machine
