Beogram 1800 wont play the record!!

I am having a problem with a bang & olufsen beogram 1800 which i have just got down from the attic.
when i put the vinyl in and press play, the stylus moves to a position over the edge of the record, as it should.
but then the stylus dips down and up again, twice, and then returns to its idle position and the record stops turning.
any ideas why it would do this?
thanks!

    well there are no obstructions inside as far as i can see, and it actually worked for a tiny bit earlier, though i wasnt doing anything different from just pressing the play button like i always do.
    i am having trouble seeing some important parts inside it as i cant seem to remove most of the panelling, apart from the bit directly below the turntable!
    thanks for you help

Possibly some kind of obstruction inside.
I had something similar with my turntable, and it had a dirt dauber nest inside it!
no kidding.

My bang and olufsen 7002 wont select the phono stage
The Phono/Aux input has a slider switch to the left of it to choose whether to make it a regular line-in jack or to utilize the phono stage. The ground terminal is just above the jacks. The Beogram 4002 likely has a muting circuit that's in effect when the tonearm is in the lift position, which would explain the lack of hum til the stylus lowered to the record.

I have a Bang&Olufsen Beogram
Similar to most Beogram 1800, the RX 2 featured record sizing by weight. When Play was selected, the centre part of the platter would raise gently, with only just enough force to lift a 45RPM single. An LP would be too heavy to lift, so the mechanism would set itself to 45RPM and 18cm if the record lifted, 33RPM and 30cm if it did not. The speed control keys could then be used to override the choice for non-standard records. The parts could also detect if a record was not present, and prevent the turntable being activated
Just put lp on and it should work

I have a beomaster 5000 which will cut out at any time sometimes it goes for ages,other times it will go almost immidiately,also i have the beogram 5000 and the cueing function doesn't seem to raise the...
O.k. The Beomaster 5000 needs new Quiescent current presets , you can temporarily solve the problem by turning the two presets (in the main amplifiers) fully anti - clockwise .
Your beocord needs new belts for sure .. availiable from CPC of Preston .. Hope this helps ..

Bang and Olufsen Turntable will not platter will not spin
Normally on the RX-2 there are only 3 transit screws but if they are stuck you might need to gently try to lift them while turning anti clockwise. You can do this with a Steel Ruler and yoiu may have to use a little bit of force as some people torque them down tight. As for manuals and service manuals - they are rare!

B&O Beogram 2000 turntable arm won't go down
Check to see if there is a cueing lever that is holding the arm in the up position.  If no cueing lever and it has worked recently then something has happened to the changer mechanism.  Open the bottom and look to see if there is an obvious problem like something stuck or broken.  You may be able to make the mechanism go through its cycle slowly by rotating the platter with your  hand so you can see where it is getting stuck.
