Hallo,
Since yeasterday I have a black screen on my 21 year old AV9000. First there whore shadows on the image, then TV was switched off. After switching on again the screen stayed black with some green dots.
I took some pictures of my AV9000:
1) when booting my sat-reciever (dreambox)
2) Here is the picture of the original bootlogo of my dreambox that should be shown on the AV9000:
3) A picture when the sat-reciever was playing a TV-show
Some more info on my system:
" When you switch on and get the black screen does the TV go back to standby ? "
No, TV stays switched on , green LED on the upper right corner of the AV9000, sound is playing through the Beolab8000.
The coloured dots are coming and going on different points of the
screen, they are in relation with the image that should be shown on the
screen.
If you look at the iHAD screen you may see that the green dots on the AV9000 are the brightest
parts of the bootlogo, the upper line of the " D " and the upper and
middle lines of the " a ", even a little part of the surrounding box may
be seen.
My AV9000 was only repaired once in the 21 years, I think it was about
10-11 years ago but I can not remembre the problem, may be the same one
ass now. I remembre that the Beo-technician came to my place, opened the
rear cover of the TV put one module out of the TV and fitted a new one
inside and every-thing was fine again. I think that at this moment a
software-update was made too, because when I bought the AV9000 I did not
have the money to buy the whole system and I only bought the TV and
CenterControlStand and 2 Beolab8000. With the first software-version I
had the AV9000 wasn't working with only 2 Labs connected, there had to
be 4 Powerlink cables connected to the CenterControl. I used my old
non-BO speakers as rear speakers with a kind of beopassiv link (thats
not the right name because there is no masterlink on it, only 1
Powerlink-IN an LEFT and RIGHT DIN-Speaker-Out) . Using only 3
Powerlink-Connectors in the ControlCenter the AV9000 did not switch on.
To get the AV9000 to work with only 3 Powerlink-Cables connected, a 4th
Powerlink-Connecter had to fitted to the ControlCenter and in this
Connector pin 2 and 4 where connected together with a 22kOhm resistor .
As my old speakers broke down several years ago I did not use the
BeoPassiv anymore and took the powerlin-cable away but the AV9000
continued working. I only know realize that this wasn't normal, so there
had to be a software update during the years.
I hope it would be possible to repair my AV9000 because it is of a very
high sentimental interest to me. I started only one year ago to
complete my system by buying an used MastePanel, a month ago I bought a
used Beolink 7000, last week I ordered the caps to do the recaping of
the Beolink 7000 to get 2 way-communication to work and last but not
least, I also bought a pair of used Beolab6000 last week, they aren't
even shiped yet.
If you could give me some help to get it working again , I would be very pleased.
Thank you very much
sincerly
gerard
