I never had like that. But "normally" there may be two reasons: CD fault or control board fault. Sometime main control keeps memorized wrong data and (in my Ouverture) CD unit simply is not responding and not loading - standing still. No way to move on except plugging off the power, press CD start on remote with no power, plug in power and try again. It clears bad data. I suspect it happened few times when I stopped CD player by remote or local main switch off.

Sounds like the belt drive that controls the doors is broken. If you're a repair headed person, you can get the repair manual online for $25 or so. Parts may be harder to get, but with the proper imformation, you may be able to do the work yourself.  It's both tricky and super easy because the design is generally very very good, but knowing the technical details requires a decent amount of patient brain work and proper tools.  DaveA

Push the door to the left this normally engages the door to the mech.it is designed to detach if the door is jammed or too stiff to move.Cleaning of the guide rail and door carrier is usually the cure.this can only be done properly be removing the central cd clamper and control panel assy.

Chances are you will need a replacement cd mech assy to fix this problem assuming you have already cleaned the laser lens(cotton bud with ethyl alcohol or isopropanol).dont know of universal remote for b&o but some specialist remote replacement companies do one for beolink1000 which will operate your product.

SOURCE: Beosound 9000 scratching top cd

You have to look up in the manual which way the two arrows on the underside of the unit are pointing when the CD player is located on the far right. The arrows are screw heads which appear in two holes on the underside. If, for instance, you are playing the unit lying flat on a shelf or table top, if you flip it up and forward to get at the arrows, the two arrows should both be pointing left. If you are mounting it on a wall, it's a different arrow combination. I had the problem you describe and this fixed it for me.

I have a B & O Beoplay 3000 and the glass doors will not open all of a sudden. Please help.

Hello Coralee

SW5 in London? Greetings from Toronto, Canada, but my in laws lived in NW5. I moved here from Cornwall in 2005.

Did you mean BeoSOUND as opposed to BeoPLAY? There is a short video on opening the doors. Page 8 of the manual below shows the have be fitted, so conversely, they can be removed.

https://www.google.com/search?q=B+%26+O+Beosound+3000+glass+doors+will+not+open

These are the Bang and Olufsen outlets in London

https://stores.bang-olufsen.com/en/united-kingdom/london

and finally, there is a repair partner in Eastbourne

https://www.av-services.co.uk/bang-olufsen

The manual if you need it. It is an elderly system and only does what it does, music and tuner.

Owners manual

Below are links to the manuals. I also have this system with the original manuals.

Basically, press the "load" button to open up the CD mechanism, put a CD on the spindle, and press load again to close the CD mechanism. Press the "CD" button to start playing the CD. Page 12 in the User's Guide has instructions on configuring the radio presets.
