Best bet is to grab the Service Manual, which is available here on the site. It's 66 pages long, including large fold-out circuit diagrams!<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/114635.aspxTue, 13 May 2008 13:32:21 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:114635Craig0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/114635.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=42&PostID=114635<p>As fas as I know (and I am no expert<img src="http://forum.beoworld.org/emoticons/58.gif" alt="Laughing" />) the only difference between the MX5000 and MX5500.

He gave me no remote, I told him it was really important that he find the remote,&nbsp; he&#39;s moving soon&nbsp; and said if he comes across&nbsp; it he&#39;ll see that I get it. So I have a broken MX5000 without a remote at this point. I got the set home and plugged in, I get red light at top right until I hit the power button, when I depress the power button, the light goes off and I hear an intermittent sound like a really small horse is galloping, then a faint beep...picture is all black....shut it down and red light comes back on. That&#39;s as far as I&#39;ve gotten. Any thoughts?<br /><div style="clear:both;"></div>
