Have done a little work, speaker options are 3 fold, vid on 2 aud on 3 (the 4000’s), It all used to work fine, but now the speakers do not fire up so to speak  —  i have got the various sources working and producing sound when prog’d to option 1 , the tv speakers.

I have now found some pl cables, will try the 4000’s with my ouverture later!

When first plugged in is there not an indication on the inbuilt screen , 4 x * if so try inputing 4 x 0, that might work, the other route might be to contact b&o with the serial number and an explanation , they have in the past given me the original pin code

Hi Yann,

The ‘sort of’ B&O  dealership in Nantes use 111 Services. I say sort of because they deal in a wide range of ‘stuff’,  not just B&O!

There is a dedicated B&O outlet in Rennes although my experience was a little negative, the owner got a little short with me because he would not give me any details of 2nd user tv’s. They at that time, 2 years ago, also used 111 Services in Nantes or so I was lead to believe.

I cannot find the relevant telephone numbers, addresses etc as they are filed in an old laptop, if time permits tomorrow or wednesday i will try to find said info!

I don’t know, the repair place did work for 2 x B&O outlets, the technician worked thro’ lots of suggestions from B&O all to no avail!

[stotty1111]

Ok, about a week on from the remote clean, and still no repeat of the problem, must have been the remote!

Thanks for all suggestions!  😀

It was a 7-40 Mk6, and had lost picture but the sound was ok!

I live in Brittany, Finistere, nearest B & O vendor is in Rennes, about 150 miles away, followed by Nantes 170, locally ‘stuff’ is a bit like hens teeth, dealerships are also a bit’snooty’ probably because my french is not top line!

Hey ho life’s a bitch!!

Hi Tignum

Sorry about my delayed response, other ‘stuff’ cropped up, I build and sail r/c model boats, and am known for solving probs with control systems. There are lots of times when I wish I wasn’t!

Ok, I will have a look later in the week and maybe decide to go with no foam. A friend thinks she may have a piece that might work, time will tell!

[stotty1111]

So, an undisturbed nights sleep, I assume the problem was remote based as I did not change any setting with the ‘system’. Time, pardon the pun will tell!

Thank you both for the input.

Tony

No hdmi sockets on the tv, scart used, with a computer connection, hdmi at the pc to dvi-i at the tv, and, basic boxes so no auto updates!

[stotty1111]

Ah could be, the control has been playing up recently, replaced batteries, sort of ok, stripped it down this morning and gave it a spray with switch and contact cleaner, it seems to be working ok now but maybe tomorrow when the solvent carrier has vapourised will tell me more!

Ok, the BC 2 sits on the motorised stand turntable under the tv, the tv is the master and the BC 2 the slave in the ML setup.

Looked at the BC 2 menu, and there is nothing listed or activated, just a reference to use the TV for timer setup.

The tv does not have a numeric system mounted, I use 2 x digital boxes, 1 for terrestrial french tv and the other for satellite english freesat tv, both these do not have anything programmed.

I am at a complete loss! I will give it another go tonight, and maybe reboot the tv and the BC 2 tomorrow, but I don’t think that should have any effect on the system.

[stotty1111]

But would that contol the tv?

[stotty1111]

No, I’ll check after lunch!!
