Beogram CD 5500 lights

6 replies

Has anybody any idea how I can fix the "track" lights in a Beogram CD 5500. Sometimes a digit is missing because of a faulty bulb. Are these LED lights or small lamps?

Maybe it is the soldering that is getting bad after all these years. Maybe someone can help me. The rest of the system works perfect.

Ok thanks. Then it would be the soldering, I reckon.

Probably the LEDs own solder joints have cracked. It wouldn't be a first.
Reflow the whole row.

That could be a good idea. How do I establish which LEDS are used?

They are custom LEDs if I remember correctly - but they rarely fail and
I am almost sure that resoldering the lot will cure the fault.
