Since the errors go together with the track numbers, you can also say, that they go together with the rotation speed of the disc. Therefore I blame the suspensions of the cd chassis. They are formed like little hooks that holds the frame im place.

I recently reactivated my Beomaster 7000 which I purchased new in 1996 last Saturday after it  had been in storage in original boxes (secured for shipping) for 10 years.  When I first started the Beogram CD7000 it worked perfectly for about 2 hours.  But now its started skipping on tracks 1-6.  After track 6 it works fine.  I tried several different CDs with same result. I would really appreciate any advice on how to fist this problem.  Is it possible that the lens is dirty or perhaps the unit needs a recap? I do not have a service manual yet but would like to get some comments from anyone here who has experienced this problem. Thanks in advance.

I would suspect the standard C2103 capacitor fault... Try searching for C2103 in the forums.. there are a lot of threads regarding this. Before doing anything, I would change at least this capacitor. Needs to be a blue philips(now called Vishay) capacitor.

Member Dillen kan supply you with a complete set for changing all caps in the servoboard.

But it is very easy to do, and just changing the C2103 will most likely fix the issue.

I have fixed may 6500/7000 cd's and all has come back to life with this new cap and a clean of the laser head.

Thank you!  Is it difficult to clean the laser head?

Correction.  It is Beogram CD7000! 

You could probably find a generic version of

Thank you!  I have heard about these.  I will try one first before opening up the unit.

Those CD lens cleaner discs with integrated brush is the best lens killer in this world.
How anyone could ever come up with a thing like that is beyond me.
My recommendation: DON'T use them!

Use cotton buds and IPA.
Wipe wet, then wipe dry.
(If IPA is left to airdry, it often leaves behind a thin cloud).

Thanks Martin. Good advice.
