Anyone want to hazzard a guess as to why this servo motor was a tiny bit strained when running one way bit when rotating the other was fine?

 

What is that????

Wonderful photo! πŸ˜‚

Do I see part of the insulating(?) wrap around the winding flapping about?

😐 Well spotted Mika!

 

@Menahem this is a naked servo motor out of a 400x series...

Yes, a swiss motor of remarkable quality that equips 4002/4 decks. I restored mine some time ago.

Best of luck.  Love my BM4000.

Hi did you find out? I need a vau1255/21 for my beosound 1, it's the same as the one pictured. Been following your updates for an answer!

Sorry, no answer on that one - maybe it's an unnecessary question, but did you try your local B&O dealer?

My local dealer won't sell me parts!
