in BeoGram · Jan 1, 2019 18:29You can see in the photo that the carriage will not fully stop until it has moved the cable clip out of place. If I screw this cable clip in the proper spot - the carriage never makes it to the stop position and the moto…

in BeoGram · Jan 1, 2019 02:41Thanks to Dillen, Solderon, Saint Begrowler and Rudy from Beolover for assisting in getting me to this stage. If I press start the needle drops too early it is right on the edge of the lead in - but should be a few mm ov…

in BeoGram · Jan 1, 2019 02:30CLOSE THE THREAD... turntable works... no hum... there is a loose connection between the cartridge and the tonearm, but with a little pressure is now operational.

in BeoGram · Dec 31, 2018 16:23I bought a brand new in box MMC20 S-R cartridge to see if I got the same buzz. OK. If I press on the cartridge a bit - the buzz goes away... leading me to believe the connection from tonearm to cartridge is compromised s…

in BeoGram · Dec 31, 2018 16:23I bought a brand new in box MMC20 S-R cartridge to see if I got the same buzz. I do. This is not a good sign. There must be something happening in the signal path between tone-arm and where it connects to the board with …

in BeoGram · Dec 17, 2018 23:17Thank you for your prompt reply!! It is much appreciated. Could you please explain this procedure: 1. What do I set my ohmmeter to? 2. The negative lead of the multimeter goes on which pad from the graphic below? 3. The …

in BeoGram · Dec 17, 2018 21:36So, if one of the coils / channels was damaged - it is possible to cause that buzz in just one channel with the cartridge attached? Do you think it is possible to use a jumper wire from the "good" lead on the cartridge w…

in BeoGram · Dec 17, 2018 19:29Alright, Thanks so much for all your help thus far. I am making progress since I last reported... I started adding a fresh set of RCAs to this 4002. The cartridge that is on it has a broken cantilever; however, I just wa…
Beogram 4002 -5513 - New AC power cable.
in BeoGram · Nov 14, 2018 01:42Thanks Nick. I (gently) used vice grips with the flat cable I was using to close the plastic clamp until it fit back in the chassis. Then I used the method I described above to splice the new cable. I have never used hea…
Beogram 4002 -5513 - New AC power cable.
in BeoGram · Nov 11, 2018 01:30Okay, power cable is cut... I decided to solder it to another cable using standard western union splice and then use heat shrink tubing over the solder joints but I am finding that all the harvested cables I come across …

in BeoGram · Oct 27, 2018 02:33Hello, I know that many people like to keep everything original - but the original owner of my beogram probably smoked 3 packs a day - the turntable still reeks like cigarettes after a month in my garage and the ac and r…
Beogram 4002 5513 - PLATTER Belt Dimensions
in BeoGram · Oct 12, 2018 00:58Hello, I read that each model of Beogram 4002 has different belt dimensions. Is this true? If so can someone hook me up with what the dimensions are supposed to be for the 5513 that would be sweet. If someone else could …
Beogram 4002 5113 tonearm assembly issue
in BeoGram · Oct 12, 2018 00:46Thank you... I needed a specialized tool ( fine tipped locking ring pliers ) which I borrowed from a local Technics 1200 repairman. I managed to remove the solenoid to tonearm linkage by removing the springS (2) and lock…
Beogram 4002 5113 tonearm assembly issue
in BeoGram · Sept 28, 2018 22:09Thanks Saint. The cylinder damper works... it is the arm that the cylinder damper 'hits' that is stiff and isn't moving freely.
Beogram 4002 5113 tonearm assembly issue
in BeoGram · Sept 28, 2018 00:59Hello, I have only ever owned Technics 1200s (of various marks) - so I am used to simple repairs. ANyway, on a recent digging excursion I received a Beogram 4002 5113 as part of a purchase. Long story short - it needs wo…
