Hello forum.
I’m having an issue with a beogram 4002. So far I know that the issue is concerning the mainboard – because if I swab the mainboard with another 4002 – the described issue also shows up using the other turntable.
Issue:
When i start playing a record (few minutes play) – and then push on stop – the arm returns and the turntable stops and stays off. The light goes out, the platter stops spinning and- everything looks to be ok.
But if I shortly after it did play (or if it the first time plays more than a few minutes) – and I push stop – the arm returns to the base and the turntable turns off only in a few seconds – then it will turn itself on again (the platter starts spinning again – and a week light in the 33rpm display shows up). If I now chose to unplug the power cord and then plug it in again immediately- the platter will start to spin again automatically and the dimmed light will be turned on again.
When the turntable is in this “none stoppable” mode – I can push “start” and the dim light get’s stronger – and the arm moves on and play the record. If I then push stop – the arm returns to the base – and the light (33rpm display) get’s dimmed again – but the platter will keep spinning now – until I unplug the power cord again.
Do any of you have any ideas of what could be wrong.
