Could be the motor. Have you tried a drop of oil but obviously make sure it doesn&#39;t contaminate the belt.. How did you eliminate the belt by any chance?</p> <p>&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/340502.aspxFri, 30 Sep 2011 14:21:31 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:340502Rich0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/340502.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=29&PostID=340502<p>Words of encouragement I cannot offer you.&nbsp; Sorry.</p> <p>What I can tell you is that the symptom you describe is what happened with my BG4002 a few months ago.&nbsp; <a title="BG4002 down" href="http://forum.beoworld.org/forums/p/39599/328657.aspx#328657">See this thread.</a></p> <p>The ultimate cure was a new motor professionally installed.</p> <p>Good luck!</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/340496.aspxFri, 30 Sep 2011 13:30:53 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:340496Keiko50https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/340496.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=29&PostID=340496<p>My Beogram 4002 has started to exhibit some speed instability (slowing) during play.&nbsp; It doesn&#39;t play steadily slow, but seems to fluctuate, slowing slightly (but very audibly)&nbsp;then returning to normal.&nbsp; I eliminated belt slippage or motor capstan slippage&nbsp;as the problem, so it seems that its some poltergeist in the electronics.&nbsp; The innards of the deck look absolutely unmolested, and there are no visible clues as to the source of the problem.&nbsp; I don&#39;t mind replacing caps or other electronic components, but I am hoping to get some direction on where to start.&nbsp; Any help or advice will be much appreciated.&nbsp; As would words of encouragement.</p> <p>Cheers,&nbsp; Kevin</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
