Hi everyone,
I am trying to repair a Grand Prix Moderne 608 receiver. I found the schematic diagram but now I am looking for an Operating manual, Maintenance manual or any available technical information.
I noticed an internal 8 pin socket that is not used and would like to know its purpose. Would it be for connecting a Stereo decoder ?
Thank you for your attention.
Can we see a photo of the unused socket, you mention?

Hi Martin.
The socket is vertical, brown. It is on my second picture under the variable cap and behind the miniwatt lamp.

Oh yes, that one.It allows for adapting different levels of Beocord signals.Normally transformer 0,32 O no. 3701 is fitted here for 50 Ohm.For higher impedance, an adapter 962L78 (mono) or 962L77 (stereo) can be inserted instead.Aren't these shown in the schematics?
As far as I know, all service manuals are in danish language. Indeed mine is.
That one then. So if nothing is in there, the signal will not go to the output socket on the back ?
Ah yes, they are on the schematic. Just did not understand what that was.
Concerning the manuals, how can i get them, even in danish ?

You can do as I did. Look around for decades and grab whatever you find. Or, perhaps easier if a scan will do, email me.
