Mine was the volume slider and it was up at full volume. It gave me a fright when I first turned it on! On mine the little piece that was broken was still in the box so I just glued it back, slotted the volume control back in position and hey presto, evereything worked again.</p> <p>As for the balence, On my 3000 the switched for the left and right stereo/mono were a bit sticky and this kept cutting out the left channel completley. After a bit of contact cleaner and switching them on and off a few times, everything was perfect again.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/182110.aspxTue, 10 Feb 2009 07:24:35 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:182110tournedos0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/182110.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=30&PostID=182110<p>Take a closer look inside first. Last summer I bought a Beomaster 4400, which also had one non-working slider. In this case, the actual potentiometer had moved out of place (it&#39;s just clipped there), and the fork of the slider didn&#39;t reach it. If the 3000 is similar, you might have an easy fix <img src="http://forum.beoworld.org/emoticons/01.gif" alt="Smile" /> </p> <p>I&#39;m sure spare parts aren&#39;t available new, so you&#39;ll be looking for some kind of a glue fix if the fork of the slider (or the pot) is actually broken, or maybe someone on the forum has a parts unit.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/181943.aspxMon, 09 Feb 2009 15:24:27 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:181943Josafan0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/181943.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=30&PostID=181943<p>Today I bought a Beomaster 3000. It was in pristine shape and it works perfectly except for the stereo lamp and the balance slide. The lamp if fix easily. But how do I fix the balance slide? I guess there is a pin going from the slide in to the receiver working on a potentiometer. Can I just glue a pin/stick on the slide that pushes on the potentiometer? Or is there parts available to buy?</p> <p><br />Anyways, the balance seem have been broken so I do have both channels at same time, sometimes you are lucky.</p> <p><br />Best regards</p> <p>Filip</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
