Hello,

I have been given a beocenter 9500, which has never been used, and is still in it's original box, with instructions etc.

I plug it in, and it says CODE, I've read a bit round here, and found out about putting a code in via the handset, but this didn't work.

coming back to the forum, people mentioned looking for a pin to short, found this, shorted it, but still nothing.

After a while of saying code, this dissapears, and all the lights come on, but the tape & cd deck have opened, and will not close.

Any ideas, or do I need to take this into a dealer to get them to fix it, and if I do, any idea how much it will cost me?

thanks

Kevin

I have answered this in the main forum!!!

The Li battery is goosed and that should be changed before looking any further.

 

I guess that the pins in question are the ones to initiate test mode and they certainly won't cure this problem.
