Hi, I'm new here and wondered if someone could give me some advise please?
I have a Beomaster 5500, and Beogram 5500 running through Beovox RL 45.2 speakers. All works great and I'm hoping to collect the rest of the system.
I've just received a Beocord 5500 which I purchased on eBay which was advertised as able to power on but untested with and hi-fi system. When I unpacked it and plugged it in it does not power on at all and appears to be dead. I got it at a very cheap price so rather than have the hassle of returning it, I would like to try and get it working. So far I have checked the wiring in the plug and changed the fuse in the plug. I have taken the cover off and located a fuse inside where the power cable is terminated. I have removed this fuse to check it but it doesn't appear to be blown but I will order a new one in case. I'm no electronics expert and don't even own a multi-meter. Is there anything else I could have a look at that may be causing the issue or do I need a bit of electronics expertise to get any further? Are there any common faults on these with regards to power on issues?
I hope someone is able to offer some guidance and things to try as I would love to get this working.
Best regards,
Lee.
