It has been a little busy since christmas, but I had some time to proceed on the Beolink 5000 project this weekend.
I had some thought about how to protect the display cable on the Beolink 5000 with no missing lines, and ended up with a relativly simple solution. I placed a piece of thick cardboard on the front of the remote covering the display and about the same lenght on the keyboard part. Then I used regular tape to attache the cardboard to the surface of both the display and the keyboard section. On the keyboard PCB i put a piece of tape around it all to secure it.
This was very helpfull when I removed the PCB and display from the housing, and when I removed the remains of double sided tape from the edges on the back of the display.
However I had to remove it when I remounted the parts as there is need for some flexing in the lenght direction when putting in the PCB after the display has been secured in place with new double sided tape.
I did not get to take anymore pictures in the process, as some of it was very fiddly to work on.
But to sum up I cleaned all the mechanical parts like rubber keys, aluminum top and housing. Also I gave the housing af fresh layer of black spray paint to cover some of the dents it had on it.
After that I remounted the IR PCB with the best of the battery cases, and connected the Keyboard PCB. This parts was very tricky when the IR PCB is already mounted. Maybe a better way would be to connect the PCB's and then mount it all in one operation?
Anyway, after putting it all back together I am pleased to announce that I now have a Beolink 5000 with working 2way functionality and no missing lines in the display

And a few full body shots front and back
The other Beolink 5000 is not going to work for now as both the battery case and some of the internal plastic structure in the housing is damaged. Also it has missing lines and very visible artifacts, so that will require some more serious restoration and a couple of spare parts.
For now I will try to play around with the working Beolink 5000, and I will of course have to buy the wall mount for it :-)
BTW one of the reasons I did get a Beolink 5000 was to confirm wheether my Beolink 7000 2way reapir was not working or if it was my 2 way systems that had faults. It seems to be the Beolink 7000, so I will have to get back working on that at some point

Oh and BTW thanks to all for the valuable input on restoring this :-) Very appreciated
