Hi , newbie to the group but I was hoping I  might be able to get some further advice after I  still have the same problem with my Beogram CD3500 after trying the following steps:

i. Replaced initially the C2103 capacitor with the replacement supplied in the Beoparts capacitor kit.  Worked initially for 4 tracks then failed and reverts strait to standby/red light.

ii. Replaced all capacitors with those supplied in the Beoparts kit plus a replacement Phillips (Blue) 33uf 16V capacitor sourced separately from the Beoparts kit; did not work at all.  Tried a second Phillips (Blue) 33uf 16V capacitor and still did not work at all and reverted strait to standby/red light.

iii. As of today replaced C2103 with Philips Blue 33uf 40V capacitor; worked for 4 tracks then failed again and reverts to standby/red light.

Currently at a complete loss as to what steps to take next so would appreciate all and any assistance/input.
