I've just bought something off eBay which I hope will be a bargain... it's a complete Beomaster 5000 system that I got for just over £50. Obviously for that price it's not fully functioning but the faults seem to be mechanical rather than electrical so I'm fairly confident I might...

Beocord 5000 turns on but will not open. I am able to manually open it. It does not play tape. It will not start. The counter does not read 0000.Any suggestions. The unit was purchased new in 1980's. It has never failed to work until now. Allen
