what's the problem of my beosound 3?

32 replies
well, today i try to turn on my beosound 3, it does not response. Even the "need-to-charge" indicator is not on. After I connect it to AC power, the charging indicator turn on. But I still cannot turn on the radio and even the clock immediately. i have recharged it for 15 mins already till now.

Also, it seems that the buttons are not functional now. But I try random try it, the radio can switch on now. But still, the function is totally incorrect.

what has happend to my dearest player??

It sounds like the battery was completely dead. Did you leave it on by mistake? I would charge it fully before trying to use it.

sounds like that.

but i cannot switch off it by pressing stand-by. The sensitivity of buttons is zero. Also, the time I switched on the radio is by pressing A. Mem

oh my god, very bad situation.
Give it a full charge and then get back to us.
does where you live has high humidity? I also have the same problem here in Hong Kong, dealer here suggested to use hair dryer, unfortunately it did not work for me, you might want to give a shot tho'
yes, but this would not lead to malfunction of keys.


It seems like the BeoSound 3 has a number of different problems!
but all came suddenly today only.... last night it was still perfectly fine.

now i have accidently switched on it, but i cannot turn it off.
Something certainly sounds wrong to me Beo. How long have you had it? Call your dealer tomorrow to see what he might have to say about the issue.
