Good news:

I managed to repair the small ribbon cable myself, so the BS8 is now fully functional !

It was a real bargain. Paid 50€ for it in perfect condition. Only thing I paid extra were new batteries for 3€.

Now I'm happy with my new toy 😁

Thanks again to all who helped.

 Hi Martin, 

 I read you manage to repair the cable.  I have got a Beosound 8,  which has the same symptoms. When an iPhone is inserted, it works well. Today I dismantled it and I am pretty sure it is the ribbon cable or the connectors to the ribbon cable that are causing the problems. I would be glad if you could explain how you managed to get rid of the ribbon cable problems.

 Thank you very much,

Hi Kristian & Christoph,

in my case I managed to resolder the cable to the connector, but there were only two leads ripped off, not the complete connector.
