I was replacing the rubber pulley on my Beogram 5500 CD tray today, and the string that actually pulls the tray popped off into a tangled mess :(

I have the service manual, but I do not see instructions for how to re-thread the string

does anyone know where to find a diagram etc?

I am especially concerned about the kink in the middle of the string...see below

here is a pic:

WELL ALLRIGHT....I fixed it :)

after pouring over every photo I could find online, I figured out how to rewire it

the confusing part was the 2nd bottom spring had popped out, and also the string had come completely unwrapped from the pulley by the front of the unit

I couldn't figure out the path for the string & how to get it back around the front pully

it's all good now. to help anyone else, I will post a vid

cheers

Hi Ummagumma,

would be interested in the vid of the string rethreading or a text explanation how to re-install the string.

Thanks a lot.
