How to solve the Jukebox puzzle in Death on the Nile is your step-by-step guide to fixing Blondin’s club jukebox, restoring power, and selecting Jackie’s requested track. Follow the sequence below to open the cabinet, solve the sliding blocks, place the gears, rewire the power panel, grab change, align the dials, repair the selector, and play the song. Make a manual save before you start in case a scene state shifts.
Jukebox Puzzle Walkthrough
1. Open the front panel

- Interact with the jukebox after Jackie asks you to play her favorite song.
- Look at the very bottom of the front face for a disc with a music note. Spin it to the right to pop the panel.
- Remove the screw, then lift out the cog wheels to reveal a sliding-block puzzle.
2. Sliding blocks: plug the connector

Your goal is to move the “plug” on the left, marked by a directional arrow, into the matching socket on the right by shifting the Tetris-like pieces out of the way.
- Move the plug up once.
- Move the big square-with-small-square piece left twice.
- Move the three-pronged piece down twice, then left once.
- Move the plug right four times, down once, right once, then down once.
- Move the Z-shaped piece left five times.
- Move the L-shaped piece up twice, then left twice.
- Move the plug right three times, then up once to connect.
3. Repack the blocks so gears fit

Now restore the cavity so the gear assembly can go back in:
- Move the L-shaped piece right once, then down three times.
- Move the Z-shaped piece right four times.
- Move the square piece up three times.
- Move the three-pronged piece left once, then up twice.
- Move the L-shaped piece left five times.
- Move the Z-shaped piece down three times.
- Move the three-pronged piece right four times, then up once.
- Move the Z-shaped piece left once, then up twice.
- Move the square piece down three times.
4. Place the gears

Label the gears 1–5 from left to right in your inventory. Label the pegs A–E from left to right inside the cabinet.
- Gear 1 → Peg B
- Gear 2 → Peg D
- Gear 3 → Peg E
- Gear 4 → Peg A
- Gear 5 → Peg C
Back out once so you see the jukebox front again, not the top or bottom, so you can pan to the sides.
5. Restore power on the right side
Pan to the right side. Inspect the three points of interest. Unplug the power cable, slide back the latch, and open the side door to a wiring panel. Goal: connect the yellow cables from the bottom to the top black bar by spinning node discs:
- Bottom row left node x3
- Middle row middle x3
- Middle row left x3
- Middle row middle x2
- Middle row right x2
- Middle row middle x3
- Middle row right x2
- Middle row middle x1
- Middle row right x2
- Top row middle x1
- Top row right x1
- Top row middle x1
6. Get change
- Talk to the hotel clerk at the front desk to get coins for the jukebox.
7. Align the dial panel and get the key
- Back at the jukebox, insert a coin. The selector is still broken.
- Zoom out once and pan to the left side. There are two dots of interest; choose the lower one with two dials.
- Match the dials to the power side’s markings. Clockwise from 1, set the left dial to 7 and the right dial to 6.
- The slot opens and reveals a key. Use it on the upper dot to access the selector.
8. Fix the selector

Goal: adjust the vertical bar with notched gears so it spins freely without hitting the numbered stoppers:
- Move the top gear up one.
- Move the third-from-top gear up one.
- Swap the top gear with the bottom gear.
- Move the new bottom gear up one.
9. Play the song
- Insert a coin again and select Midnight Storm.
- Return to Jackie; she’ll be dancing and ready to talk.
