Beosystem av 9000 problems

6 replies

Hi

Got this old nice AV 9000. There are few problems with it. First a stuck tape inside player. It just would not eject. Any easy way to get it out? Or if I have to open the player do I have to lift TV away then?

Second.....stand is not working. Motor is running and some loud squeaking but not turning. Some belt or?:)

Suggestions?:)

Ok........stand problem solved. Belt broken........but that video. How to get in there?😁

OK.....simple and easy but now need service manual for vcr. Suppose it is Beocord VX7000? Possible to find from here?

Yes, it`s a VX7000 - you will find manuals for the Beosystem AV9000 on the product/ manuals site on Beoworld.

There was a good repair thread on the archived forum, but sadly the photos have disappeared (perhaps they can be recovered or found elsewhere): /forum/the-workbench/workshop-vx7000-how-to-repair-this-recorder-common-faults;

Also, I often watch this chap's YouTube videos for repair tips.  He works without manuals and it's interesting to see his approach - he has fixed a few B&O items, but sometimes it's a bit hit and miss.  Here's his VX7000 video:

Yep, found that same. Actually got some hints concerning about right positions of few parts in loading mechanism.

Still have that problem with loading. There is some kind of a bar under those rollers and wheels underside of player.

That bar don't move enough and prevents movement of a small hook. That hook allow two wheels to connect and loading don't work.

It's a question about 2 mm. If I give some pressure to right direction to the bar everything works just fine.

I can't find any faults from plastic linkages nor wheels.
