Beogram 2000 won't stop!
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Aug 8, 2019 11:10Hi Tekni, Thanks for your comments. I'm no technician but I did solve the problem of the Beogram 2000 not stopping when pressing the LIFT button (updates were given in a new post). I'm not able pinpoint the exact cause b…
In need of new Part for Beogram 2000
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 20, 2019 10:19Hi Nick, Thank you, yes it was fiddly to do but I'm happy with the end result. Sods law says I will now find the original spring, but it hasn't shown itself yet. I have plenty of surplus sprung wire which I will keep in …

in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 19, 2019 15:58Hi Martin, Found a conventional bulb (surprised I still had one). Checked platter speed again and was able to adjust to the correct speed via the side wheel. Many thanks, Carl

in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 19, 2019 15:14Finally!!!! Hi All, Found time this morning to tackle the making of a relay spring. Took 3 attempts but eventually I was happy with fit. Fitted spring and tested deck - 'shock horror' I still had the problem where the mo…

in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 11, 2019 20:12Hi all, quick update - unfortunately the spring offered above was from a different deck with different internals. So I will proceed with trying to make a spring. If in the meantime an original spring is found and offered…

in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 10, 2019 23:22Thank you. I’m planning to visit Munich next year but we won’t wait till then (smile). Yes shipping costs can be high but I didn't want to be presumptuous on how much you wanted for the spring, plus I’m not sure what the…

in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 10, 2019 17:31Hi Martin, I'm very relieved to hear you're not annoyed. I'm not usually a sensitive sole but the brevity of your replies made me wonder. I always suspected you had a lot on your plate and with hindsight I can now see yo…

in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 10, 2019 15:58Hello Martin, Yes the link you provided was extremely helpful and I replied thanking you. I missed the link pointing to Alex's photos that you provided first time around. Not sure if the link was late arriving in the mes…
In need of new Part for Beogram 2000
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 10, 2019 10:25Hi Nick, Thank you for that explanation on purpose. I can now fully understand why my turntable, without this spring, is behaving so erratically. Thankfully Martin (Dillen) diagnosed this spring was missing else I would …

in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 9, 2019 07:23It is just a thought, and only in anticipation of not being able to find the spring I need - would it be possible to make my own spring, has anyone done this? I'm sure I could obtain some thin 'sprung' wire. But what I d…
In need of new Part for Beogram 2000
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 8, 2019 14:15Hi, My Beogram 2000 type 5240 is missing the small wire spring which is located at the end of the start relay. The spring hooks into the armature as well as the relay housing. I'm not quite sure of the purpose of this sp…
Beogram 2000 won't stop!
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 3, 2019 15:15No sign of this relay spring! Its loss is a complete mystery. I'd feel happier if at least I'd seen it in place prior to starting my renovation work. But I imagine it is not a component one would easily be aware of. Inte…
Beogram 2000 won't stop!
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 3, 2019 13:00Thank you Martin, I don't understand why but I missed the initial link you provided, my apologies. Yes that link is very useful. I'm going to have another look for the spring within the internals of the turntable, althou…
Beogram 2000 won't stop!
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 3, 2019 12:24Hi All, You will see from the last few threads that I have lost a spring that goes on the end of the start relay. It is thanks to Martin that I have been made aware of this spring. I have no idea when and where it was lo…
Beogram 2000 won't stop!
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 2, 2019 10:43Well I've searched everywhere the turntable has been. Crawled around on my hands & knees with a torch. Placed the turntable on each of its 4 sides without the wooden plinth and base cover in place, given it a shake but s…
Beogram 2000 won't stop!
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 2, 2019 09:56Just checked service manual and I can see the spring you must be referring to. It's labelled 87 on diagram with part number 2819073. I have never seen a spring that looks like this. How odd to have it disappear. I wonder…

Beogram 2000 won't stop!
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 2, 2019 09:07Hi Martin, Have taken a photo. Is this the area you refer to? I don't recall seeing or losing a spring at any time. When I removed the relay for cleaning it went back exactly as I found it. If the photo is the area you r…

in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 1, 2019 19:17Well, it's time for a brief update. But just as a reminder: Yesterday I had everything working other than being able to raise the pickup arm while the record was playing (via the LIFT button). Pressing LIFT during play d…
