I do not think a battery leaked in this one. The interior is clean and decent looking. No evidence of battery acid etc....but re-soldering is probably a good idea anyway.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/341799.aspxTue, 11 Oct 2011 04:06:14 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:341799tournedos0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/341799.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=30&PostID=341799<p><blockquote><div><img src="https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/Themes/beotheme1/images/icon-quote.gif"> <strong>HarryPierce:</strong></div><div>(after ripping out the corroded contact from the pad with the old battery and soldering a new 9v connector in...;-)</div></blockquote></p> <p>This sounds to me like a battery has leaked sometime in the past, and now the acid / corrosion has finally started to create problems.

Last night I turned of my Beomaster 8000. One minute later it was on again with the tuner blasting on P8. I thought, I maybe pressed the wrong button. So I turned it off again. Well, about 30 sec later it was on P8 again. I wondered if it might be the Terminal malfunctioning. Indeed, putting the remote under a pillow, the BM stayed off. Next, I played with the remote pressing all the buttons...sometimes I was able to elicit a proper response, but mostly not. I put in a new battery (after ripping out the corroded contact from the pad with the old battery and soldering a new 9v connector in...;-). To no avail: Exactly the same phenomena...</p> <p>I should point out: The remote was not abused...it just sat there on the coffee table and was working fine just a few minutes earlier, and then out of a sudden this strange behavior.</p> <p>I am wondering if anyone may have encountered a similar problem and found a remedy?? The usual bad solder joints?? Thanks much in advance!</p> <p>Rudy</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
