Beosound 8

Hi,

I got my hands on a "dead" Beosound 8.

Opened it up - And noticed that there was no power on 5V pins. Found that a section of exposed pcb trace was missing.(no idea how/why). Put a jumper wire and 5V is good now.

Ipod on 30pin connector does not get any response. No charging..no green status.

connecting line-in and playing music - lights up the green status led. But no sound from speakers.

The keypad responds to remote and keypresses (light on keypad activated).

but NO sound from speakers.

Any guidance ?

Thanks !!

 

Progress. Not that I fixed anything but -

1. No response on the dock connector. No charging of ipad.

2. line-in - status turns green but no sound. keypad responds to remote but no sound.

NEW

3. USB - The input here works without issues.

So PCB999 seems to be ok.

Any suggestions ?

Thanks

Hi dahiyas, were you able to fix your problem? 

Everything was working fine with mine, I ordered a 30 pin bluetooth receiver and when I tried it nothing happened, no green light, no orange light, the speaker was dead. I plugged something via line, it works but once I try to use my iPod on the dock the speaker dies completely.

I opened everything to check the connections and cables, there is nothing loose or broken. 

I don't know what could be interfering with the iPod dock. 

Unfortunately No. In fact the system went silent after couple of days. One of the ic’s had a burn mark on it. Haven’t touched it since then.

That's a bummer...

Do you have any plans for it, maybe part it out?
