Beocom 2000 handset: how to open?

4 replies
Dear all,

Unfortunately my beocom 2000’ s handset is in the water. Now the voice from the handset is really really low. I want to open the handset to make some repair. Do you think it’s possible?

Thanks!

Daniel

As far as I remember the only wat to disassemble is destructively!  You may be able to break the glued seam around the edge if you are very careful with a craft knife.  Then simply glue it back together.

The way to open this handset is "mechanically" if you are careful and have a bench vice wrap the handset in a microfibre cloth or similar then place the handset in vice speaker / ear set  facing up and along the split line . you can apply gentle pressure and you will hear cracking as you go. personally i would use a non metallic scraper to help prize/open the split line  so as to not damage the surface finish. use a TUBE of polystyrene model glue applied to the female portion of the handset  the ideal is get a controlled separation not a dig in and hope without the assistance of elastoplast plasters!

Why do you think the problem is in the handset?
Did you check the electronics in the main unit?
