Help : Replacement connectors on Rockola 474 Jukebox
Hello all
I'm restoring a Rockola 474 jukebox right now. The problem I have is that the connectors on most control boxes are extremely dry and the break as soon as I try to remove them to service the boxes. Not very practical indeed...
I spent a few hours on DigiKey trying to figure out the AMP part number to replace those connectors. Some of them are from the MATE-N-LOK family and I found a perfect match including the proper crimps. I plan to order those along with a contact extraction tool so I can transfer the pins from the old housings to the new ones.
However I cannot locate the correct part for a few connectors. A 3-pin panel-mounted housing on the Animation Light Controller and a 21-pin on the Credit Unit. The 3-Pin as the number AMP 480758 but I cannot find anything with the part number. Any idea where I can get the proper replacement housings? If these are no longer available what you guys a doing when a connector is broken?
Thanks a lot,
Eric
