Hello all! It’s Andrew calvadesh

I have a Beolab 3 that came out of storage and now it doesn’t work!! ? when it’s given mains there’s no indicator light at all. Can anyone advise on what might be wrong. Does anyone have PCB I can buy? I’ve looked at it disassembled already but there’s nothing burned or visibly damaged.

 

 

thank you so so so much!

It happens regularly. The powersupply then fails. Most are repairable.
A dealer can send the Beolab to DK for repair. If there isn't one nearby, you can send it over to me.

Location: Utrecht

Quite a challenge to achieve "Less is More" while having the Beovirus.

Hello!! Thanks for your comment. I’m going ahead and replacing the fuse and the two main capacitors  Because it seems they are the problem.

I’ll let you know!

 

thanks

Hello!

 

so update to the whole post: I fixed them! It was the main capacitor on the PSU. Now the only problem is one will randomly stop producing sound (with green light still on) any ideas? Big problem is solved thankfully.

Can you post images of PCB with whatbfix you did?

Also, can you detail the capacitor type and where you sourced the parts from
