Seller: atomk ✉️ (3,237) 100%, Location: Milford, Connecticut, US, Ships to: US & many other countries, Item: 111566298815 Kodak Carousel Projector "ADVANCE" Repair Kit. If you have a Kodak Slide Projector (Carousel 6XX, 7XX, 8XX Series or Ektagraphic AE, AF, B or E Model) which works OK except the slides do not change ("ADVANCE") when either the FORWARD or REVERSE button is pressed on the projector or remote control, then you probably have a defective solenoid link , a somewhat common problem with these projectors.

This Solenoid Link Replacement Kit contains all you need to restore your projector to proper health. The kit includes the necessary repair parts and step-by-step instructions for disassembly, replacement link installation, reassembly, and adjustment.

The complete Kit sells for $15.00 (+ $4.00 S/H) which is a fraction of the price that a camera repair facility charges to perform the repair. (To repair additional projectors, you'll just need additional parts packets at $4.00 each.) When ordering, be sure to let me know which model Kodak projector(s) you'll be repairing.

This Kit is appropriate for manual focus projectors (Carousel 650, 650H, 700 & Ektagraphic B, E2) If your projector has a different model number with the autofocus or remote focus control feature, you should consider replacing the focus motor WORM GEAR and its meshing SPUR GEAR. These gears are generally made from the same polymer material as the solenoid link and usually fail about the same time. Also, by replacing the SPUR GEAR, the time (and disassembly effort) required to replace the solenoid link are considerably reduced. See my other ebay auction for my ADVANCE Repair Kit w/gears.

This repair job is not for the mechanically impaired ! If you have problems assembling a child's bicycle or putting together your gas grill, this procedure which involves some disassembly and small parts handling and positioning may not be for you. Instead, you can email me and ask about my MAIL-IN TuneUp/Repair service .

On the other hand, if you enjoy bent nail puzzles and have rebuilt a carburetor, you can successfully undertake this repair by following the detailed, step-by-step procedures illustrated with color pictures. For tools, you'll need a medium size Phillips screwdriver, small and medium flat blade screwdrivers, a ¼" nutdriver, long nose pliers, a ¼" open end wrench and a metal file.

By the way, I also have available a cleaning and lubrication TUNE UP Kit, Repair Kits for "manual & motorized focus problems", "no reverse" and "noisy operation": a Buying Guide; and a Carousel CLINIC for problem diagnosis/repair advice. Please email me for details and see comments from satisfied users below.

To determine the likelihood that you have a defective solenoid link, perform the QUICK TEST outlined below.

Here are some comments offered by satisfied users of my Carousel repair and tune up kits:

               

    • "I finally carved out the time to do the repair on the 750H. The illustrations and instructions were very clear. You're right about this being a procedure requiring dexterity, but having those good instructions helped a lot. The projector is working fine now. Thanks again." PeteM
    • "Wanted to let you know that I am delighted with your product. Diagnostic, assembly and tune up instructions clear, concise, and informative. All of great utility. Parts and tools perfect for the job. Your above and beyond and most timely advice and suggestions put to work and greatly appreciated. Your product is much more than I could have hoped for." ScottG

    • You deserve the Oscar for Repair, Service, Information and Instruction Publications. I have never seen instructions so detailed, and as well illustrated as these you have sent me. It's amazing that you cover each little step so well. The photos are so detailed and well shot. Thank you a million times." HowardL
    • "Just a note to let you know that I received the package on Tuesday and I repaired the projector that evening. I'm glad I ordered the focus gears because they literally started falling apart as soon as I touched them. I took my time with the repair and got it completed without any major problems. I'm happy to report it was a complete success and the projector is working perfectly once again. Thanks for a great product and the very fast shipping!" RonaldK
    • "I wanted to compliment you on the repair kits and instruction for the solenoid link, focus gears and lube kit. I completed the work in two evenings this week, and it went very smoothly. Your instructions are well thought out and very easy to follow. Great products!" JoeK

After that all went well, and my projector is now as good as new.Thanks so much." GaleT

My remote focus worked before, but it seemed to bind sometimes. Now it runs smoothly all the time. " TedS
