hello weebyx, thanks all here for the great info. im having a challenging time with the same symptoms, where is c15 tr37?

thanks very much!

It is the one with the black circle :) I also changed the capasitor C15 (10nF) also in the black circle, but I think that the transistor is the problem if you are having 0v like me...

fantastic, no wonder i couldn't find it! thanks and thanks to die_boegner. es i have 0v, so will get onto it in the morning!

thank you very much

I used 50v in mine, but really don't know what the correct voltage should be..

How do you access the PCBs in the bottom half of Beolink 7000, meaning how does that part disassemble? Wanted to ask before I break something trying to open it. People on this post have opened it with success, obviously.

Many thanks

You need to pull out the battery and desolder the wires, then remove 4 black plastic caps, and unscrew the 4 bolts that hold the mirror assembly in place.

Many thanks for the reply.

I presume the rechargeable batteries are 1.5V each as it was probably to early for Li-ion?

Yes, you can buy a new battery pack with correct batteries from BeoVienna on a certain auction site. Dont try to use the wrong ones, they will only cause trouble.

One last question. 

The elastomeric or "Zebra" connectors for re-attaching the LCD panel... That is the part that is giving me the "heebee-jeebees," so to speak! I read many internet posts and spoke to friends who have fixed calculators and alarm clocks with these connectors and I understand many a times you could end up losing digits or entire segments of the display if the connection is not tight. One person said he wiped the connector surfaces with isopropylene alcohol and that made things worse. Any good reading on this about what to do?

Many thanks
