    sherwood Newcastle R-672 A/V Receiver Shuts down

    I have a R-672 that powers down to standby mode randomly. It was in a cabinet that held a lot of heat, and was wondering if it was triggering a heat sensor or something from getting too hot. I took it out of this cabinet and and let it sit to cool down for several hours. I unplugged everything but the power just to make sure there wasn't a short from a wire or something and still had the same issue. I then did a factory reset to the reveiver, powered it up, and still had the same issue. I took the cover off the unit and saw no visible problems to any capacitors or anything. Any ideas of what's going on?

    Thanks,

    Steve

    Probably a leaky transistor causing excessive current -> overheat condition. Look at the output stage, the main output transistor, then those that bias it and so on.

        Intermittent display on Sherwood Newcastle R-965 Receiver
        by BigPete
        Hi all,

        I'm working on a Sherwood R-965 at the moment. It came in with relays clicking constantly and also going into protect mode.
        I've re-soldered a lot of dry joints and replaced quite a few capacitors and now it works, but I still have one problem I haven't solved and would like some opinions.
        The vacuum display is quite intermittent. Sometimes it won't turn on, sometimes it will turn on but the characters, numbers and letters are frozen on, regardless of which buttons are pushed. And sometimes it works flawlessly. If the display doesn't turn on initially, restarting...

        Running out of Ideas, hoping someone smart can provide some for my ONKYO TX-SR353 Receiver
        by CDNBrewer
        Hello Everyone,

        I have an Onkyo TX-SR353 Audio/Video Receiver (5.1 ch with HDMI) that I am having a really hard time diagnosing and I'm about to throw this in the junk and go buy a new unit that is on sale until the 7th.

        Symptoms:
        • Intermittent (part of the reason why i'm having a hard time isolating problem), sometimes will work for 10+h at a time without issue
        • Original symptom was wife reported loud banging noise (like someone was banging on the wall with their fists) from the LEFT SURROUND speaker and then the unit shut off.
        • I swapped the Left and Right surround
        ...

I tried looking for a service manual, spare parts for a receiver and a parts list but I couldnt find any info. can someone please help me to find the info online for a service manual or where I can buy...
