Blaupunkt Frankfurt

[adamderosa]

I have a Blaupunkt Frankfurt US radio, part number 7632629200 that I've been told was removed from a 1974 Avanti. I'm trying to get it back in working order but I don't have any paperwork for it. Does anyone have the owner's guide or service guide? If so, would it be possible to have a copy e-mailed to me? I've searched on-line for this haven't had any luck.

Thanks,

Have a look at this page, it appears as though your radio may be listed a little over halfway down the page, but you apparently have to contact them for pricing:

Judging from my internet search, it seems Blaupunkt put the Frankfort label on a number of different models over the years.

I have some literature on the Blaupunkt that came in my '80 Avanti, but it doesn't

list a model name, only the model number CR-2001 (a radio with tape cassette that came on a number of foreign cars like Saab, Porsche, etc). I'm not sure this will work, but here's a try at posting a copy of the cover of my pub:

Didn't work, try this link:

Thanks for your help, Wayne! I'll give that website a shot.

Hi,

I just bought a '74 Avanti II with the original Blaupunkt Frankfurt radio. I have the owner's manual and schematics. Would that help? The owner's manual is very sparse but you can eventually figure out what the English part is saying. I can copy and mail or possibly scan and e-mail though the files would be large if you want high enough resolution to print legibly. My FM works fine though just static on AM. Right now I am looking for a functional if cosmetically challenged radio for parts with the idea that I can identify the AM tuner section and replace that board. I gather from a casual glance at the schematic that there are two circuit boards in the case.

Let me know.

Hi Raymond-

Yes if you could scan and e-mail me your radio manual that would be great! My e-mail address is: adamderosa@yahoo.com. If you're unable to scan it, you can mail a copy to me at 36399 N. Streamwood Drive, Gurnee IL 60031. I will glady pay for the postage, just let me know what it costs.

Thanks a lot!

Hi Adam,

Give me a couple of days. If the docs scan well enough I will e-mail them, if not, I will mail you a hard copy. I have a high end flat bed scanner so quality is not the problem but file size might be, at least at a quality setting that will print legibly at your end.

No charge, you might be able to help me in the future.

Hi Adam,

I have made nice hard copies of the owner's manual and schematics for the Blaupunkt "Frankfurt" model #7632629. This proved easier than scanning to a high resolution graphic file to e-mail to you. I should get this off to you tomorrow. If you have any ideas as to why my AM section is dead, I would appreciate the input. I recall that my '86 Subaru radio did the same thing, though I just replaced it with a (then new) Alpine CD receiver. This is a bit different though I might put in the new "Frankfurt" look-alike and keep the old one if any future owner would want the "proper" radio for the car.

Hi Adam,

Your Blaupunkt manual and schematics went out today via First Class Mail. You should have them early next week.

Good luck with your project.

Thanks a lot! When it comes in I'll take a look and see if I have any ideas for your AM band problem. It's great that we can help each other out through this forum and I look forward to re-paying the favor.

Raymond-

The diagrams and manual showed up on Saturday. Thanks again for helping me out with this!
