The band lamps intensity depends on the signal strength.
You could have a bad antenna signal.Martin
It could be a matter of using a properly screened signal cable.

Should the Beomaster 8000 automaticly switch off after playing a record and the Beogram is shut of?
Yes. Apprx 30 minutes after the Beogram stopped playing.
Same goes for Beocord, apprx. 30 minutes after the tape stopped running.
– But only if the Beomaster is still on the same source.Martin
On the grey capacitor it says “Plain negative”.
In other words, the tag with no mark on its rivet is the negative.Martin
The problem could be that the plunger gets permanently magnetized, and it will
stick to the metal bracket.
I have seen this a few times.
Take it apart and demagnetize it.Martin
Where do you plug the CD player in?
Does the CD player play in both channels if connected to a different amplifier?Martin
Beogram 3000 was produced with two different mechanics (one has the start relay box), but the motors are all identical to the one in Beogram 2000 (5244).
Same goes for the record deck in Beocenter 3500, which is identical to Beogram 3000.If the pad is this one:

Read the description and look at the photos.Martin
…Here’s what B&O did to ameliorate the resonance of the air chamber created under the hard dust cap of their midrange, which is just the same woofer, just modified pole-piece.
The driver with the ventilated magnet is not a midrange!
Both drivers were custom produced to each their specific jobs here.
Personally, I don’t believe much of it before I see some form of documentation.
No, you cannot just listen. – You can measure much more than you can hear.
If you sat down and took some readings, you will see that
the midrange and woofer drivers have quite unique T/S parameters, and you would also see that those parameters go out the door, when you fit rubber surrounds.
It’s a fact. It can be measured and calculated – but most people will actually be able to hear that something is out of normal.
Look at a scope, enlarge waveforms, analyze distortion and its source.
And that comes based on decades of experience with all matters B&O audio
and lots of speaker experiments, measurements and whatnots.
All facts.And – as a moderator – I have also been weeding out posts that went into audiophoolery.
Beoworld forum is not for buying or selling snake-oil.Why don’t you give us the readings, so we can see, that what you are doing are in fact improvements?

There should be no pairing.
If you are sure, that the Beo4 is working, it’s most likely, that the remote receiver is not
longer working in the BeoSound 2000.
If the latter is the case, I made this kit:https://www.beoparts-shop.com/product/beosound-century-ir-remote-control-pcb-service-kit/

They are not 1970s – but then again, there weren’t that many LEDs in 1970s B&O.

Question is not why something works.
Question is why something doesn’t work.
In your case, – where things basically works when commanded from outside but not
from its own operation panel, there must be a problem getting the commands from the panel to the processor.Most problems of this sort are caused by cables, connectors, solder joints and
stuck switches. However, the keyboard reading circuit could also be at fault.
If the display on the front panel is also garbled, perhaps some circuit shared by those
two functions should be looked at.Martin
When you fit the black subplatter to the hub, make sure to match the
three “protrusions” on it with the three small indentations on the hub.
If you don’t the subplatter will ride too high.And you have the platter upside up – right? Your photo shows its downside.

Front panel cable/plug correctly seated?
One or more buttons stuck down?Martin
