Beogram cdx 2 lid closing and opening 5 mm and closing again

4 replies

I got this cdx 2 cd player with a BM 8000 system I bought 4 years ago and the lid did not opened completely from the moment I got it.

So now I had time to order a new belt from Martin and after I changed it interested problem presented itself. The lid opens now and closes as it should but when closing the lid slightly lifts up again (about 5 mm) and then closes again.

All the other functions work as they should, CD is playing very nicely.

What could be the problem there? I scanned the forum for this problem but did not find any thread for it...

The problem is, that the lid motor isn't braked hard enough.
Replace the capacitor on the lid motor board.
It's a 47uF or 68uF if I remember correctly.

Thank you Martin, I'll try that!

There was a 68 uF in there, I change it and the lid works fine now.

 

Thank you very much Martin
