I found 19 carousels of slides in my dad's belongings after he passed
away. They go back to the '70s, '80s, '90s, and 2000s. Most of the
carousels are 140 slide capacity, completely filled. I wanted to
view them.

I've got a Kodak 760H Autofocus Slide Projector that I haven't used
for decades. I used to take a lot of slides when they were in vogue
in the '70s and '80s.

I pulled out the projector and went through three of my dad's
carousels. All was working well, including the manual forward and
backward manual buttons on the side of the projector, as well as the
DIN type plug in remote.

The next morning I put on another carousel, but it wouldn't display a
slide or go forward or backward. I discovered there were two slides
stuck in the gate. I removed the carousel, and got the stuck slides
out and tried again. This time, the carousel wouldn't advance or go
backward, either with the manual buttons or the remote buttons.
There is not even a sound as if the thing is trying to advance.
Crap.

I have found repair manuals online for some of the Kodak projectors,
but not for this one. What I have read is that there is a solenoid
that can be adjusted to change the range of movement, but, since I
haar no noise at all, it may be that the solenoid is dead. I can
also see a diagram that shows the mechanical arm that moves the
carousel back and forward, but I can't separate the bottom case from
the top case. I have no instructions for this model, and there are
only two screws on the botton case, but removing them isn't enough.

Anyone know this model, or have any ideas what oculd be the problem?
I'd love to see these slides.

TIA

There is a LOT on the web about this projector:
Found these in 15 seconds:

Many thanks, Paul in Houston. Looks like I should have added 'repair'
to Kodak 760h projector in my search.
