Seek 1960s Kimball Electric Motor-Transmission
By Jere DeBacker

Hello, I have a client who needs a new motor and transmission
(they seem to be permanently connected) for his Kimball player piano.
He says the piano will play fine if he turns the roll manually, but
the transmission appears to have a broken gear or something that
prevents turning by the motor.  The fuse is good.  Thanks.
