Diagnosis: Other
Describe the behavior before opening the equipment or replacing parts.
Safe first checks
- Note exactly when the problem occurs and which inputs or controls affect it.
- Test with known-good speakers, cables, and a second audio source where safe.
- Take clear photos of any visible damage with the unit unplugged.
- Stop immediately if you notice heat, smoke, a burning smell, or repeated fuse failures.
Bench Technician Steps
This is the model of work a qualified electronics technician follows using the exact service manual and suitable test equipment. It is not a do-it-yourself instruction to work on energized equipment.
- Document the symptom, conditions, inputs, controls, and any visible damage before replacing parts.
- Use the exact service documentation for the selected model to form a test plan rather than relying on a similar-looking unit.
- If the fault requires work near mains power, stored energy, or live internal circuits, use a qualified electronics technician.
