Uber-member Dillen (aka Martin) likely can help.  Be patient.  He will probably find this thread shortly.

Yep, right here.  😂
What type of Beogram 1800 do you have ?
The early type with the SP cartridge and a round belt
or the later with the MMC cartridge and a flat belt ?

Maybe you can help me.  I just picked up a beogram 5000 with mmc 3 cartridge Powers up fine when I press start but the tonearm doesn't move and it shuts off after 3 seconds. Same when I press "cue". I don't have the DIN (7 pin) to RCA adapter to hook up to my receiver yet. Could this be effecting tonearm?

Welcome to Beoworld !

Sounds like the record sensor is bad - or you have no record on the platter.

Martin

Sorry for the delayed reply. I have been out of town for the last week. I have an 1800 with the flat belt and an mmc cartridge. Thanks for your help.

David,
I can supply a belt.
You have a PM (check your inbox).

Martin

Thanks. A poster on another site suggested another motor with another belt for the arm.  I lifted the platter and sub-platter and saw a nylon gear that seemed to be stuck in nuetral.  I twiddled with that and the arm moved, replaced sub-platter, platter, and...voila. Now, just waiting for the DIN/RCA adapter.  Unless a B & O reciever reveals itself to me in the mean time.

Thanks again,
