I tried to reset the Beocom 5 using 9#9#9*INT

As soon as I do it it shows the following choice on the screen:

——————

1 Handset 1

2 Handset 2

* All handsets

——————

No matter what option of the 3 above I choose, as soon as I hit the ok button it shows on the screen:

——————

Base not found

——————

May be is actually resetting the phone and then going to the home screen. I don’t know.

Anyway I tried again to register the phone with the same result as before.

The seller agreed to send me a refund for most of the price so I accepted it.

So this Beocom is definetly mine.

What could I do to try to fix it?

Go to a B&O repair shop and pay 100 times the price of the phone?

Try to reset the base using another Beocom 5 unit?

Sacrifice a lamb to some Danish Gods?

I tried everything you suggested but nothing worked.

I’m going to try to return the phone to the seller.

Thank you!

I just tried the option “REMOVE HANDSET” on the Beocom 6000 and I get the same message on the screen:

PHONE BOOK

** NOT BASE 1 **

According to the manual this message means “The Phonebook is stored in base 1, but
base 1 is inaccessible.”

It is really weird since the Beocom 6000 still can make phone calls so the base 1 must be accessible being the only base registered on the phone.

In summary it is not an specific problem with the command to reset the base since this other command fails as well.

If I press “Dot 7 000 8” then after 4 seconds it goes to the main screen where the current time and date are displayed.

If I press “Dot 7 000 8 Ok” then it goes to the main screen where the current time and date are displayed.

Pressing Ok at the end just makes it directly jump to the main screen where the current time and date are displayed instead of waiting for the 4 secs timeout.

I’m sure the Beocom 6000 is connected to the Beoline base since I can make phone calls successfully.

I tried “Dot 70008” and the message below was shown on the Beocom 6000 screen:

 

PHONE BOOK

** NOT BASE 1 **

 

Then I tried to register the Beocom 5 on the base but with the same result “Searching base Wait…”

I would say that in order to fix that issue you need to replace the rubber belt that moves the doors.

Guy thank you for the reply.

Unfortunately I only have Beocom 6000 Mk1 so no INT button.

A simple reset button on the base as any other manufacturer in the world does would have been great.

I’m totally blocked if in order to reset the base I need to have a Beocom 5 registered on the base.
