Beolink 7000 keeps switching on and off

31 replies
I have a Beolink 7000, it works fine, no problems with the two way communication or any other controls. But when it's not the charger, it keeps switching itself on and off. After using it, it switches itself off, two standby lights light up in the upper left and right corner. Then it switches itself on again. This just goes on and on. What could it be?
Sounds like it is getting a signal from somewhere. Try taking it into a room with no B&O in it (if you have one 😂 ) and see if it still does it.

I have tried it (found a room with no B&O Peter! 😁), but same story. The problem is actually literally described as a fault in section 2.7 of the trouble shooting chart in the service manual. Since the service manual only advices to replace either module 1 or 2 (which are no longer available), it is of not much help.

 I have replaced the self made battery pack in my Beolink 7000 with an official B&O one, but the problem is still there. When not in the charger, it keeps switching itself on and off. Maybe Beoworld member Die Bogener, can spread some light on the matter. He seems to be the beolink 7000 specialist.
Has anyone experienced the same problem and is there a solution?
Is there a dent right in the middle of the chrome plate? There is a piezo crystal sensor under this plate, you could disconnect the wire from it for testing. But do not solder on the sensor, solder only on the board... the piezo would go defect.

Hello Die Bogener!

If it is the sensor, wouldn't it be switching on and off, even when in the charger? It now only switches on and off when taken out of the charger.

Hmmm, then it cant be the sensor.

There are 2 switches on the backside at the lower end of the BL7000. These switches are responsible for the motor control. What happens, if you put it on a desk, will it move? And if you put it on the desk with a small distance that these switches are not activated? Will it switch off?

What voltage can you measure on the battery when it's operating? 6V?

The motor works like it should. The two pins on the back also work correctly, if you put it on a table, it moves up. When you take it from the table, it moves down. I just replaced the battery pack with a new one from B&O, thinking the battery pack might cause this problem, but even with the new pack it's the same. The problem is actually literally described as a fault in section 2.7 of the trouble shooting chart in the service manual. Since the service manual only advices to replace either module 1 or 2 (which are no longer available), it is of not much help.

I have been reading on the forum that more people have experienced this problem since I started this topic. Member ''Die Bogener'' suggested recently that replacing the big blue cap on the lower PCB board could solve the switching on/off problem. Has anybody tried this replacement and has it solved the problem?
