Hi..I have installed the capacitor kit..and have the table operating except it is not locking into the speed..arm lowers..and then the table sppeds up ...have cleaned the tacho disc...and tried it with another..had to loosen the retaing washers to loosen the sensor..I have soldered and resoldered the joints...is there any particular caps that may just affect the speed like the..or where may the problem lie??frustration is starting to set in after spending about a full day..24 hours tryin to get it working..any suggestions for the next step?? or where to check??

Gary 

Did you replace all the caps in the kit ?
Did you check for cracked solders ?
Are you sure you have the tachodisc sensor installed correctly, able to shine its light through the pattern of the tachodisc and all plugs installed ?

From standby - press "TURN". Does the platter rotate at 33RPM ? Will it change to 45RPM if "45" is pressed ? 

Martin

Hi there Dillen

It's been awhile as I have been out of town.  the turntable stays at 33..the arm goes to the centre and stays there..while the speed continually increases..stays at 33 unless pushed for 45 ...but then goes back to 33 and stays in the middle..speeding up all the time.

I have spent so much time on the 2 of these tables..would you consider repairing..if I sent you the boards with the controls and power supplies...

I will be happy to take a look at the boards. You have a PM.

Martin

Hi  Martin

Have the boards arrived yet??and did you get my last email about the 8000 board?

Gary

Yes (I as wrote to you in a PM yesterday) and no, I don't think so.

Martin

Hi Martin

With luck the boards will work..as far as the 8000 goes I should buy 2 kits from you and a disc as well ...just in case..I will give it another try.

Gary

Again ,  Thank you

Martin

I put one of the repaired 8002 boards into the 8000 that was working well until recently... connected the wires  etc..it started off nicely then speed up again extremely fast..I tired it 3 times..the next time it just sopped dead..checked the wires again, fuses etc..to no avail..I am really debating about putting the other board in..but have fear that the same will happen again..any more suggestions before I put my 4 B&O 8000 tables in the heap..I really have liked them during the years..just not sure what am I missing here..

Gary

Please don't mix up boards from Beogram 8000's and 8002's, they are different. Could also be a fault in the tachodisc opto sensor in your deck or the wiring around the chassis.

Martin

Hi Martin

I have put in the capacitior kit into the 8000..everything works except the speed  is too fast..I also put the new tach disc in..not sure wherelse to look to solve the problem as this is happening with all 3 ttables..must be something simple but just can't seem to find the issue yet.

You have the same fault on three decks ?

Do you have the correct transformer module according to your mains frequency ?

Beogram 6006 / 8000 / 8002 won't work with just a voltage converter as their
function depends greatly on the mains frequency and there are different transformers to suit 50 and 60Hz respectively.
