    Hi Jimmy Joseph, This is an internal component failure and the protection circuit is stopping power up. Meter testing will need to be done to determine the cause

    Thanks for the tip.I just wanted to confirm that this did not happen due to some external faults like speaker wire shorting etc.If it is a confirmed internal fault then probably I need professional help.It was because the standby light was flashing in green instead of red which is the normal case when protection circuit is active which has got me wondering.can you confirm also the green light flashes 8 times before becoming steady as if it's a fault code for a specific type of failure which you find in many other devices.Thanks and please confirm if you can.

    What is the time in between flashes ? .5 sec , 2sec. ?

    Time between flashes is more like 1 sec.

  • jason Dec 31, 2013

    Disconnect all connections , unplug the power cord and wait a while before plugging in the power cord to test for "power up"
    the protect circuit your thinking of has to do with the amp(speaker wires crossing or to high of resistance in the speaker) , the protection circuit for the power is different

Sounds like either a blown mainpower fuse or the thermal fuse for the power transformer. If the protect circuit was kicking in, the display would light up, but then turn off with a red blinking light. the green light with no display means the transformer is not getting power.

Testimonial: "I got it checked by a tech and it was confirmed that the tranformer primary winding is open circuit probably due to the thermal fuse.main fuse is ok.Is there any means of resetting the thermal fuse or the only option is to replace the transformer as the whole unit seems to be sealed.some advice in this regard is appreciated.The output circuit integrity was checked and found ok.The problem has been isolated to the input circuit to the transformer.your advice has been helpul to reach this conclusion and thanks a ton."

    The thermal fuse is buried inside of the transformer and is not replaceable by itself. You have to replace the entire transformer.

SOURCE: I was trying to reset my Denon AVR 689 to default

Hello,

To reset with the unit OFF but plugged in, press and hold the speaker A and B buttons and while still holding them press the POWER button. Continue to hold the speaker buttons for another 1 to 2 second.The display should all light up and flash at 1-second intervals. If not flashing, try again.

I hope this helps

I have a AVR - 2802 and was working fine. One fine morning when i started the system there was no sound everything is functioning well except the sound. I checked the speaker connection and the connectiion seems to be perfect. Is there any lock in the system? Can someonetell me how to release the lock.

Denon AVR-1908 won't power on

Are you getting a standby light at all? Is it flashing? Do you here a click when you plug the unit in? If the answer is no to all of these then you blew a fuse. If you do have soome sort of standby light, then your set is in protect mode. More than likely for a blown channel. If no lights, but you ar egetting a click, you could have a bad transformer. Use a DVM and see if it is open or not. Good luck

When I switch on my Denon AVR 3300 , only the ON / Standby light flashes and no display

Hi
Are you familiar with electronics?
If and/or when the red led light is flashing it means the device is in protection mode.
1: check voltage regulators 5v and 12v which are the important parts to keep the device operating.
2: if there is a short circuit on the power amp, meaning the power output of the receiver.
3: check output Transistors.
Hope this will help or you can give these to a technician that can help you.
Good Luck

After turning ON the power/standby switch, the unit(receiver) display comes ON (green light) then after approx.4-5 seconds the display goes OFF and the unit defaults back to the standby mode (red light). I...

Is the red light flashing at first?
The unit may be going into protect mode. Lets hope it has done the job and the receiver has protected itself from failure.
Protect mode can result from speaker wires touching each other or the Amps2_bing.gif metal case. Check that first.
It can also be caused by unstable ohm loads if too many speakers2_bing.gif are connected to any of the outputs especially zone 2.
If you can remove all speaker wires and turn the unit back on. If it stays on, turn the volume down on the main zone and zone 2 if connected. Then reconnect speaker wires.

Denon avr 2803

The unit is in protect mode. This effectively shuts off the output amplifier section. This happens because a problme is detected in the output section. This unit will require service. Most likely the output transistors have failed. Figure on $20-$40 for parts plus the local labor rate for repair cost.

Denon avr-2106 problem!!!

You're drawing too much power from it. Sounds like maybe your sub is hooked up wrong, double check that.

Power on but no display on Denon AVR 3705

By now the folks who asked this have certainly solved their problem, but in case anyone else has this same question:
If the color change from red to green on the Power button indicator light and stays that way, the receiver is most likely working fine, it's just that your front-panel display is OFF.
1. Check the DIMMER mode by pusing the buttom on the front panel -- it may be set to OFF.
2. Push the PURE DIRECT button on the front panel (or remote control) -- it may be ON, which turns off almost all of the front-panel display. (Alternately, change the AV source, which turns Pure Direct OFF.)
HOWEVER if the power light flashes rapidly, the amp's overload protection circuit may have been triggered by a feedback loop or other problem, such as a shorted or bad cable connection. Turn off the power and unplug the receiver. Look for problems starting with shorted speaker wires or cables. Then make sure the receiver's not still hot (wait 5-10 minutes to let it cool), and remove obstructions or anything blocking the top vents. Plug it back in and power up again. Immediately change the Source selector to something unconnected, and turn the Volume DOWN just in case there's a feedback loop (hum/squeal/noise that can overload things and cause the protection circuit to trip again). If you can see the display, go to a low level (around -50dB should be fine) before the delayed speaker amp output clicks on. Then carefully switch back to the problem source -- if that's the problem, switch off again immediately and re-check all of the cable connections at both ends, the receiver and the source component, and make sure you don't have a feedback loop due to a recording device feeding back a signal. All VCRs and CD/DVD-recorders should be hooked up to the VCR, DVR or TAPE/CD-R "IN/OUT" jacks with IN being connected to the cables marked OUT on the deck and vice versa. (That confuses even us experienced guys sometimes!) Also, no MONITOR video or audio outputs should be connected to the recording decks, nor should the TV outputs be fed back to the recorders. The same goes for the digital IN/OUT jacks for CD recorders; use only the same number IN as OUT for each component (Optical IN/OUT #4 and #5 are the two digital IN/OUT pairs on the AVR-3803).

No Power

I mwas gonna suggest that you need the speakers attached but you stated later that it did the same thing with the speakers attached. The unit switching off after it checks its self is NOT a normal thing. TAKE IT BACK BEFORE ITS TOO LATE!! GOOD lUCK
