I have a pioneer A-307R here and what it does is flash all of the leds on the front and nothing more.
I got the thermal camera out on it and saw that Q451 was getting hot, so I removed it and the lights now come on as normal, but obviously that part of the amp doesn't work.
I tried replacing it, but it goes back to its flashing lights thing again.
I noticed too that on the back of the board R465 - R467 - R 469 are all getting red hot (over 100 degrees C)
Im guessing I have a short here somewhere, but so far I have not managed to find it.
I have attached the schematic for this if anyone with a better brain can figure out what is going on here.
