Alle forholdsvis simple reparationer.
Det er utroligt.

Og så skete det for endnu et Beoworld medlem.
Han blev fortalt, at hans Beogram 8002 ikke kunne repareres, fordi EPROM'en var gået i stykker. Sådan een kunne
ikke skaffes og hvis han selv fandt en fra en donor, ville den kun virke i kort tid.

Gud fader for en gang vrøvl!
Naturligvis kan apparatet repareres og naturligvis vil en del fra en donor ikke vide, at den er blevet flyttet til et andet apparat og hvor længe
derefter den skal holde op med at virke.
Sludder af første grad. 

Nåja, - og så er der ikke en EPROM i Beogram 8002...

I'm sorry for writing this in english, but having a danish father in law has taught me that norwegian and danish sometimes are a hundred miles apart. And I apologise for the long reply. 

I have lately come to the sad realisation that I've been very lucky to have a qualified B&O repair service near by me. The past ten years they've serviced and repaired two Beomaster 8000, two Beogram 8000, one Beogram 8002, one Beogram 4000 and one Beogram 3000 (Thorens) to my utter delight. Then two years ago they closed down shop due to old age and so another company was designated the official B&O servicer.

So far all is well. Until this summer when lightening literally struck my summer house and effectively killed the Beomaster 8000 and Beogram 8000 that I had forgotten to unplug (shame on me.) I took them to the "new" service shop and had high hopes they would be able to fix them, not so. I was told that both units were beyond repair and asked if they should just toss them for me. I told them to not throw away the Beogram (as I wanted the stylus, the platter and since the lid on it looks perfect.) But the Beomaster was missing some buttons and since they said nothing was usable on it I told them it was ok for them to throw it away. 

I am not saying I think someone could have repaired it, for all I know that's the answer I would've gotten everywhere else as well. But it makes me realise that I can't expect to have everything related to old B&O repaired by guys who have been fiddling with these machines for a lifetime. And since I'm in the market for a Beomaster 8000 which in my experience requires some love and care it makes me a little uneasy.

Repairs to units hit by lightning strikes are often quite comprehensive.
But NEVER throw anything away. Even if it will never work again as-is, there will ALWAYS be usable parts.
I am missing one tiny bronze spring plate to complete a completely restored Beomaster 8000, that will eventually
come up for sale. You just threw one of those spring plates away...   🙁

Martin

Hi, didn't you get one of those from me some time ago - the one for the long bar pressed to open lid?
Or do you miss another part?

Rfs, Leif

Feel free to use drlykkes@mail.dk

I don't know what people do with them.
This is for another Beomaster, also missing one.

Martin

Jeg er lige i gang med en større udmugning af - for mig ukurente modeller - og en mindre omflytning, så inden længe finder jeg da en til dig igen.
Ved jeg har lavet en mindre stak af dem sidste gang, du manglede - godt nok ikke i messing, men i stål.
Når de dukker op en dagene får jeg Postnord til at levere et par stykker til dig, så kan du se, om de kan bruges eller må jeg vel plyndre en BM 8000 på loftslageret - det er bare lige så håbløst at komme til dem lige nu som at finde de andre.

I mellemtiden kan du lige få hjernevindingerne til at spinne og komme med et par gode råd til en BL3500, der udeklukkende viser ON prikken og til nød reagerer på valg af clock-options med Mute og On / Off touchknapperne og vider : prikkerne - ellers er den død.  Ikke en gang muligt at vælge option eller servide menu efter bogen med en Beo4.

Email mig bare hvis det tager for lang tid at finde sprigfjederen...

Mvh, Leif

Yes, saying OK to them throwing it away was a really stupid move on my part. Sadly I first realised that when I saw your wanted post for the leaf springs. 

But I've learned my lesson now.

Hej Martin

Er der stadig ikke nogen værksteder, der reparerer B&O på en forsvarlig måde?

Har selv en Beogram 5500, der kunne trænge til en reparation.

Franz

Hvis du er i nærheden af Hovedstaden, kan jeg måske hjælpe.
