    Yamaha HTR 5990 Troubleshooting

    I've got a very temperamental receiver from a friend in the shop right now.

    At random times it loses lock on S/PDIF signals and sometimes it will randomly shut down. Loss of S/PDIF and Toslink digital auto detect occurs even in Pure Direct (ie, DSP bypass).

    Im guessing something isn't right with the logic supply rail.....any other things to check? There are no obviously blown caps or broken joints. Some joints have excess flux and look a bit crappy but a quick continuity check passes. I'm going to redo those, just to be safe.

    Zero experience in repairing audio equipment, but I see a few youtube videos by the "Multimeter Junkie" and he comments about poor soldering on some receivers. See

      Yamaha YPG-625 No Power troubleshooting
      by jul2711
      Hi,

      I have this keyboard that I am working on that doesn't power on when connected to voltage. Upon looking at the schematics I believe that the issue is with the power supply circuitry (schematic screenshot and pdf attached). I have poked around the circuit from the DC in jack and for some reason, the two 5v regulators only seem to get around 0.5v in and 0v out. I have tried jumping the power connector to simulate the on switch, but no dice and I get the same readings on the regulators. The fuse is fine and will beep in diode mode. Nothing looks obviously bad or scorched.

      practical courses for troubleshooting pc motherboards
      by blues_spirit
      Hello from France,
      mon2 kindly advised me to post a thread to ask the question(s) I'm concerned about. I'm new to the forum and I'm looking for practical courses for troubleshooting pc motherboards especially laptops in Europe, if possible in France. I have been a computer network system administrator and a corrector of administration modules for automated programs under Unix. But I really miss the practical "ops" side of troubleshooting. So I would like to start from the beginning: 1.8V, 3.3V, 5V and 19V tests for example, etc...
      Do you think this is feasible for me? I...

      Yamaha RX-V485 Wn9711 Update

      Help Needed: Yamaha RX-V485 Network Issue After Firmware Update (WN9711 Error)

      Hi everyone,

      I'm facing an issue with my Yamaha RX-V485 receiver. During a firmware update, the process failed, and now the USB, Bluetooth, and network functionalities are not working. Occasionally, the receiver displays the error code WN9711.

      I came across Yamaha Technical Bulletin No. 0103, which describes a similar issue for models like the RX-V4A, RX-V6A, and RX-A2A. According to the bulletin, the issue can be resolved by shorting soldering points (e.g., J260 for RX-V4A or...

      Yamaha RX V675 sound issues
      by jjne
      I have an old Yamaha RX V675 receiver which is starting to develop issues with the sound, although it doesn't quite match up with what folk normally report with these.

      From cold, the sound cuts in and out. When this happens the amp is losing sync with the optical input (speaker graphic disappears from the front panel). But this is not resolved by putting the unit into pure direct mode. After a couple of minutes this resolves, although there are occasional clicks from the speakers after that.

      At first I thought it was either a speaker relay or the DSP, but I don't think...

      YAMAHA CLP-550 without of sound
      by AlexVG
      Hi.
      I have an old YAMAHA CLP-550 without sound. (Some times I can get some kind of noise or distorted sound)
      I have replaced all green marked elements, but it gave me nothing.
      The IC12 chip LC9116A-105 (red marked) remains under suspicion yet.

      But it is custom YAMAHA's chip, and I can't find any information about it.
      Maybe somebody came across with the same issue?
      Any information will be very useful. I will be very appreciated.
      Thank you....
