Hi Jleo,

This problem seems very similar to my problem; see post:

/forum/beogram/tx-2-platter-stiff

My beosound 9000 is currently at my dealer for service. I will let you know the outcome.

Regards,

Dennis

 

 

Hi Dennis,

Thank You very much! I will wait Your updates!

I wouldn't like to spend 400 EUR + 50-100% of Russian B&O service extra charges. I think that I could buy some used operable BS3200 for ~800 EUR with luck of course. I acquainted with a lot of notebook repairers, maybe they can help me with EEPROM?

You can order an EEPROM that is not preprogrammed and install this in your BeoSound. If this does not work you might need a new processor and a preprogrammed EEPROM. But of course it is also possible that something else is wrong, that is something I can't see from here.

That's idea! All the more so this EEPROM can be replaced relatively easyly.
Is it true that I replace original EEPROM by new unprogrammed microchip and BS3200 must work if problem is EEPROM without any programming?

P.S.: What is the second removable microchip in close to EEPROM?

P.P.S.: Where can I find processor?

Well, testmode showed:

 

BS3200 can't default its settings:

TM31: "TM ERROR"

TM37: "TM ERROR"

 

TM28: "MEM +++", in other words:

   ROM - OK

   RAM - OK

   EEPROM - OK!

 

But BS3200 have 1 fresh error:

TM27: "1 IOP 19" - error in the I/O microprocessor: TP (Transport Protocol, Transactional Process?) module HW (HardWare?) error APOS (Action Process Object And Scheme?). Somebody know what does it mean? What's wrong with my BS3200?

 

Added:

TM01, TM02, TM03, TM04, TM06, TM07: "WRONG TM" for some reason while RADIO works perfectly in slave mode...

I believe nobody knows (((

 

The www.avaservices.co.uk answered the following:

"

It is not possible to give accurate fault diagnosis from 3rd party investigations.
 
However, we have had a 3200 which had a micro world fault  that gave similar symptoms.

The fault may be a corruption between the micro and EEprom.
In this event the unit would need workshop attention to have both replaced.

...

The cost of Micro, EEprom, software and interface for a 3200 is £492.19 + vat and carriage.

"

I suppose it will be more than £600 ((((((
