Almost there. Diode in relay burned out and that was the cause of arm misfunctioning.There is still some frequent scratchy noise in spindle like its hitting something lightly . This is one funky deck ,hehe. not for blondies;)

Anybody have experience /repaired this model ? Arm mechanism works erratically and the deck doesn't switch off at the end of record . I sprayed relay contacts and and didn't notice any greas hardening but I have zero experience with B&O TT's and semi-automatic types. Thanks

OK thanks ! Seems like I need to upgrade my membership to be able to use B&O TV ;0) Regards, L

OK!, Thanks! I Did like you said. I can get picture and some sound on SHIFT CD now, but only on RCA video cable. S-video still doesn't work . Audio input sensitivity is very low so I can hear only wisper like dialogs (not crucial ,I can and use separate amp for front speakers.) REgards, L

Guy , Thank you Somehow the S-video is not self detecting on my MX5000 and Sound on TV's Rca also doesn't work after SHIFT , CD press. Did you have to set it up in "Connections " menu ? Good news about those caps, although (since I'm not B&O diehard ;) for $450 I'd rather buy a nice LCD . But the plus is that this set is

No ,its a Sony DVD. I programmed it on AV2 input (which are RCA in -out) and I'm able to watch movies. Only those distorted horizontal lines (stretched ) need to be addresed . Is the manual for this version (with RCA's) is available ?? Regards, L Also if anybody have list of Electrolytic caps in the TV on hand that would be neat ;0) TIA

Alright , I'm half successful with this . I didn't notice a small print on the bottom under a row of RCA inputs outputs . It is an AV2 input and I was able to program VCR on this and it sort of work when I push VCR buttom (but not always -remote must be old ) Bitter part is the picture is a little distorted along horizontal lines and there are

Yes there is a menu button with "connections" option but it only shows the connection to scart inputs not to RCA inputs . AV button should allow to connect RCA's but it doesn't do anything. Gotta love that set ;0)

Thank you for replying. My Beo MX5000 might be some US version because it also has RCA audio (left , right) and video input as well as outputs . It also has scart connections. AV button on remote doesn't seem to do anything. Regards, L

I asked on North America forum to no avail maybe here I'll get lucky. Hi there, I never thought I'd get a TV but friend of mine gave me a semi working MX5000 relikt ;) He said that it doesn't always power in (cliks but no picture) Probably some capacitor is just about to expire on PSU board but this is not a main question I'd like to
