Well, after buying a Beolink 1000 remote, I was able to get into TEST MODE, and proceed with the repair you go over in this video. Your video was extremely helpful...thanks so much! I wouldn't have tried this without your guidance. A few things to note...there is an extra screw on the CD carrier that you have to take off to get the sledge to snap out of the arm holding it onto the unit. You don't mention that you need to release the ribbon cables as you pull the sledge off the unit...there are releases on the left and right side of the cables that you need to push back to release the cable. You mention those when putting them back on later in the video. It may be obvious to you, but to those that follow directions to the letter, this could throw them. Also, I'm not sure why you took the whole back plate with the 9 screws off to do this repair. Perhaps you had other repairs to carry out on this unit that required it, but for this particular repair it isn't necessary. Just set the BS9000 into TEST MODE using the remote, press CD and then 72 to get it to release the sledge, move it by hand to somewhere convenient, then undo the bits to get the sledge off. There isn't even a need to remove that tricky center plastic thing to get the carrier off.
Thank you Giuseppe for the great video outstanding and unique !!! . I have a question prior to do this on my own. After exchange do you just power up the unit and no need to exit the test mode - or is there any start up code ?
Hi Giuseppe - firstly great instructional video which was easy to follow and informative. I have a a question regarding reassembly. When reassembling the CD cradle (removed circa 4:00min reinstalled 7:18min), it now drops down a little and the mechanism is unable to freely move without hitting the chassis. I think it is called the clamper. It doesn't hold up in position though I'm pretty certain I have put it back exactly as per instruction. I noticed this on assembly attempting to slide back into position 1. It required me to lift slightly to clear the silver frame. I checked and re-seated 3 or 4 times with the same result. I repowered thinking it might auto adjust and resolve but now no longer can freely slide without hitting. The spring adjustment was in the correct position prior to disassembly. Any advice or suggestions to help? Thanks.
@@GiuseppeM Hi guys. So I've pulled mine apart a few times now. Replace the laser twice (wrong unit the first time). Much of this instruction is unnecessary as you don't have to remove the back panel at all. Also on the clamper, the back two torques are height ADJUSTERS, they are the problem Adrian is having.
@@83mancio83as Adam said, the two screws at the back of the clamper are height adjusters. If you screw them all the way in it messes the alignment. Unscrew them but not all the way until you have clearance.
Hi. Your help would be much appreciated…I have a Mk2 that plays the cds but some Cds make a scrapping sound I notice there is meant to be a key that adjusts the player depending on if it’s lying down or on a wall. I don’t have this key. In the video he shows some toque screws, Will adjusting these screws stop the scrapping ?
Hello, just wanted to know if there was a diagnostic I could run to determine that the laser is faulty? Don’t want to replace just to find out it is not the issue. It moves into the correct position however has stopped spinning / playing CDs. Thanks so much!
Hello GiuseppeM , many thanks , great informative video. I have a BeoMaster5 , the hard drive has crashed. Any ideas as to where I can get a new one. Thanks
Awesome video! I just replaced the laser and a couple of capacitors on the IR board just last week. Unfortunately now I have an issue where when the CD spins up it wobbles. Which results in the track skipping along with a lot of noise. Any thoughts on what I might have done wrong? I've tried fiddling with the two adjustment screws for the angle of the sledge, but that has not been successful in eliminating the issue.
Hello Giuseppe, great video! my beosound 9000 is stuck at cd 6, doesn't go back to cd 1. when powered on, it will try to move away from cd 6 but fails. Any suggestion what might be causing this? thank you.
Thanks for great video! I have a different problem, CD is working but the sled is stuck in position 1 and does not move. Any idea if this is potential cleaning issue, a mechanical jam or some part that needs to be replaced? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
@@GiuseppeM If you have the MK-I or early MK-II you won't see the message Cleaning Required. But the likely cause is dust or dirt on the two small plastic tips at either end of the top plate. Those are part of the FINGER PROTECTION system. Clean both of them and the UNDERSIDE of the glass cover.

Hello, my BeoSound 9000 can move from 1 CD to another but cannot read the CD, the staff of B&O checked and said probably the stylus out of order , as its Mark 1, no more replacement for it, do you know whether it can be repaired please ? Thanks 😊🙏
Hello, I have the ploblem with my IR reciever for the Beo4, it does not work and I want to repair this part for my MK I. And secondly, I have to replace my Power Supply Unit. Because the BS9000 turned on and after 1 sec turned off. Do you know, where I can get the parts that I need? I think without a remote contrill, i can´t get into the Test Mode???
@GiuseppeM I tried getting into test mode on my BS9000 on my BEO4 remote, but it refuses to do it. I have one speaker attached, so the BS9000 responds to the remote. I programmed the SHIFT key to be in the LIST. That's where I'm stuck. I tried hitting LIST to call up SHIFT, then pressed the GO button. Then I punched in 9-0-2-5-8. When I tap the first number, the display goes right back to CD, and doesn't show the numbers, either on the remote or the BS9000 display. What am I missing?
@@chabulux I never figured out how to get into test mode using the Beo4 remote, so I ended up buying a Beolink 1000 off eBay. I'll keep it as my "service" remote and use the Beo4 for normal use.
Hello: Loved the video. MY 9000 is stuck with the glass down and pin code light blinking but unresponsive otherwise. I need to get the CD out and I can't get anything to work. Any suggestions? Thanks
If you have forgotten the pin Get the master code from B&O to unlock. You will need the serial number from the label or there is some sequence of buttons to reveal the serial number in the screen.
Thank you so much. I have the same cd pause error on mine. I have the service manual but was a little unsure of how to take it apart. Your video helps a lot. Out of curiosity where did you buy the replacement laser assembly? I have been looking for a vam1250/21 but have trouble finding an exact one. Can you please share a link of where you got the laser from? Or point me in the right direction. Thanks again for the video, it will help me a lot when I do my laser change.
I'm glad it helps, the repair manual is so confusing. I bought the part on eBay but I don't recommend the seller because they initially sent me the wrong part and caused me a lot of trouble.
@@EJFSanchez2 I've read a part number on a couple forums but those posts are from 2017 so I wouldn't trust it, the listing i bought it from just said BeoSound 9000 MkIII laser
Ok I followed your video to replace my laser. I was able to locate a vam1250/21 on eBay. The only thing I did wrong was remove that plastic piece in the middle that was kind of tricky. It snapped where it mounts. But no big loss it can’t be seen anyway. Also want to point out that if others decide to follow this. Don’t forget to take off the two ribbon cables on the clamper as well as the one holding the laser. Also they lock in place with two tabs on the sides. Also at the end when it’s put back together don’t forget to carry out test mode 71 and 73. Thanks again, my beosound 9000 is working again :)
Hi! Great video for an easy repair. I just lost CD player on my MKIII a few weeks ago and tried this, as for the first replacement didn't work, i bought another new one from a different seller as i read on the comments it might be wrong part but i am now pretty sure i got the good part. All and all, it is still showing pause after a few seconds, any thoughts on what the problem might be?
You need to adjust depending on orientation of the unit. Ie sat flat / on vertical stand etc. There are two covers on the back for adjustment. See user manual

The remote doesn't work if the speakers are not connected, there is a workaround, press simultaneously on the remote STOP and the red button at the bottom right and then click the number 1. I bought the part on eBay but i can't recommend it because the first time they sent me the wrong part.
@@GiuseppeM - Ok, we will try that with the remote. Is ordering parts on ebay the only way to get them? Do you know anyone in the US that does these repairs?
I am based in Korea and the Customer Service told me, B&O no longer produces the necessary parts (the laser module & amp included in BeoLab1 speaker) and nothing can be done to make them work again. Do you know if this is true?
It is true but they never made the laser, you can find a replacement and have a repair shop install it. The original modules were faulty and they will all fail sooner or later
@@GiuseppeM C’iao. Can’t believe the local B&O never voluntarily recall if that is true. I have decided to contact a private repair service which isn’t an official B&O service. Thank you Giuseppe. :-)
very helpfull video,i have the origionald model could you give me the part number of the laser assembly for that model like you said i purchased in 1997 or 1998 if you can help me it would be very much appreciated. thanks DONALD.
Hi mate. Just wanted to note a couple of things. Firstly there is no need to remove the whole back panel. That little piece that comes out at 1 min 45 is FOR this repair. Once that is out you can pull the assembly. Second, the two tiny torx at the back of the transport are adjusters. They manage the height. I'd be leaving them alone. Lastly - I had this identical error. Changing out the laser did nothing... Are there any other thoughts on what can cause this error. Incidentally I don't have a functional remote
Thanks for the feedback! I believe they sent you the wrong laser module; check with the dealer and check with different stores. You definitely need the remote though
Hi amazing video I have beosound 9000 mk2 I can’t not take the laser unit out it’s the top right hand side where the screw is the screw is out the laser unit I can lift out on the 3 sides but the top right hand side is sticking in the metal housing just can’t not get the unit out please can you help me or any one had the same problem waiting for your reply thank you
The cd clamper is in the locked position. Press one of the other cd locations and when the clamper is moving turn the main power off to allow the sled to move freely. Failing this you can manually unlock with cog underneath the sled. You need to poke at it with a screwdriver and is tricky.
Everyone keeps saying click shift. There is no shift key to click. Everyone keeps saying its under List key. I press List key there is no shift (only stand,random,speaker,a.setup). Need more info, break it down to exactly as teaching and alien. You don’t show your remote as your doing this so can’t see what yiur doing.
It looks like a cheap small laser, in a nice big CD player, that’s so sad 😔🤔 Old Sony CD 💿 players like the X777ES or X77ES are using indestructible overpowered lasers, built like a tank! B&O didn’t make the right choice!

Thanks for the feedback! I believe they sent you the wrong laser module; check with the dealer and check with different stores. You definitely need the remote though
You can release the sledge by opening the glass and pressing cd position 6 then disconnecting mains power as the sledge is moving
@@rivalrepairs this is clever. wish I knew this before buying the remote.
Good tip. I wish I left them alone.

Hello,
What kind of error did you get after test in test mode?
Hi I just finished putting in the laser, but now it doesn’t switch on, any ideas pls?
Good afternoon please how can I order for the CD module
They’re on eBay, contact the seller to make sure they send you the right one
Hi amazing video I have beosound 9000 mk2 I can’t not take the laser unit out it’s the top right hand side where the screw is the screw is out the laser unit I can lift out on the 3 sides but the top right hand side is sticking in the metal housing just can’t not get the unit out please can you help me or any one had the same problem waiting for your reply thank you
The cd clamper is in the locked position. Press one of the other cd locations and when the clamper is moving turn the main power off to allow the sled to move freely. Failing this you can manually unlock with cog underneath the sled. You need to poke at it with a screwdriver and is tricky.
How do I access the programming of my control, I have the same problem with my beosound 9000
To enter Test Mode click Shift 90258
Everyone keeps saying click shift. There is no shift key to click. Everyone keeps saying its under List key. I press List key there is no shift (only stand,random,speaker,a.setup).
Need more info, break it down to exactly as teaching and alien.
You don’t show your remote as your doing this so can’t see what yiur doing.
great tutorial. Same with mk1?
Yes but the laser kit is a different part number
@@GiuseppeM ye, sure. Got it since ages but since one of my 2 bs9000 is still running I never felt to try. Thanks
Where did you buy the laser from?
I bought it from eBay, double check with the seller that it's for the right version of your player
Csn you please tell me how to spot the generation for the 9000?
Take off the Upper left Cover - control Unit - behind you will find all details on a sticker
Thankyou for the tutorial. Do you know how to go to test mode without a remote? Cheers
Thank you, no I don’t know if it’s possible
Not possible test mode is only possible with the remote
Where is the shift button
SHIFT is found under LIST button
Hi what the code for free the bloc cd ?
My sound Bro 9000 don't want move
disc unit
Tell me where did you buy le laser lens
I bought it on eBay like i mentioned in the video, but there are 2 modules, you need to ask the seller to make sure it's the right one
It looks like a cheap small laser, in a nice big CD player, that’s so sad 😔🤔 Old Sony CD 💿 players like the X777ES or X77ES are using indestructible overpowered lasers, built like a tank! B&O didn’t make the right choice!
Happy for you using a Jap Sony
