Side A will not cancel out

Hi, I have a Rockola 470. When I inherited from my father it didnt function and after a few months of repairs i eventually got it running. I have the service Handbook and good technical knowledge. My electric understanding is limited.

When i select Side A of any record it will not cancel out the selection, and keeps repeating all the Side A songs that have been selected. I have tried cleaning the components and resetting fuses, but nothing seems to help. How can i fix this?

Side B songs have no problems. But the selector arm can take up to 5 minutes sometimes to select the song.

Hello TOMMYELVIS

I suspect that the reset coil for the A-sides is broken. It is also possible that the A-B snap switch makes bad contact or that the sliding contact is dirty. All other parts of the reset circuit are responsible for both A-sides and B-sides and should therefore be error-free.

Great answer Charly, thank you very much. I will start by replacing the reset coil.

I cant find a reset solenoid on this site, where can i buy this part?
