On vacation in Hawaii and scored this bad boy! Always wanted one during my ten years of collecting. The blinky lights are cool especially during this time of year. Now to bring her back to NY. She is complete. One speaker light is out. ALL other lights work. Some static in sliders. Some contact cleaner and she'll be bumping by Thanksgiving.

What a souvenir to bring back from Hawaii! I travelled to Hawaii a few years ago and never found something as cool as this! You have to post a video of this thing in action when you get her patched up.

Congrats.
I refurbished mine last year that had one bad speaker light.
Once I verified it wasn't the bulb, I went looking on the board and didn't have to look far to find a bad resistor.
Just back trace from the plug and both speaker light's resistors are right there.
Easy fix.
Just looked and found this pic in my phone.
The resistors are the two small, upright ones to the right of the speaker plugs.

Thank you for the help and taking the time to look thru your photos to find this one. Really excited about this score.
