Hi! This is my very first Post, I hope I did everything correct.
I tried to fix a Beosound 9000 mk1 wich had CD Problems and was unable to recieve remote commands. I changed two caps of the IR reciever PCB and everything was fine again. Then I entered Testmode wich was impossible before the IR fix. After that, some TMs and a lot of reading I was pretty sure the laser is broken and needs to be exchanged. Common problem.Unfortunately I ordered the wrong type because I‘m not very experienced. This is my first project.
Because I didn‘t knew that at that time I installed the wrong laser unit (cdm 12.4 instead of cdm 12.6) and entered Testmode again and tried to run TM 73 a few times (and some others) and had really strange things happening. Then I realized that I‘ve installed the wrong unit. It‘s way worse than before with the old laser.
Now my question:
How possible is it that it will work again with the correct laserunit? At least as good as before with the broken laser.. Maybe there are more issues.
Is it possible I broke something on the PCB because of the false laser?
Is it worth it to spend money on the correct one and give it a try or game over?
Thanks and greetings
