    Kenwood KR-A5080 Amp.

    I have a Kenwood KR-A5080 amp that when you turn it on the front panel
    comes on for about 5 sec. and then the amp shuts down. Can anyone tell
    me what to look for?

    What you always look for in a failing amp power supply problems (bad caps and regulator ICs) and shorted audio output transistors or ICs.

    Open it up and take some pics. I don't know what you expect to hear from a a few sentences? Give us some details .

    Elements of the past and the future combining to make something not quite as good as either.

      Kenwood KR-6030 vintage stereo ,Old Man Trying to Save a Buck

      Hello all. I'll try to keep this short. I have no knowledge of electronics. I can use a multimeter and am familiar with caps to some extent. I bought a Kenwood KR-6030 vintage stereo. It need work and so I thought I would recap the thing since I get power to the on switch but nothing else is working. No lights, no sound and so forth. I went to Mouser to order caps and I find I am way over my head. I not only do not know the type of capacitors I need but Mouser and digikey do not accept Kenwood part numbers. I have the info such as 220uF 63v and such but no place to put it. I could buy a recap...

      The Overseas Only Kenwood Model KR 790
      by Mark R
      I am Repairing this unit. It had many problems. One major one was the power transformer being about 4-5 volts low on the main B+ line which called for 66.5 Vols after the Main Filter caps but only showing about 62 Volts. Caps and the 5 amp Diode bridge were replaced which helped slightly.

      The other strange problem was the small secondary winding from the PT which supplies 18 Volts AC to the "FM FLUORESCENT DISPLAY" circuit, and the small winding that supplies 8 Volts AC to the push button grain of wheat lamps. Those voltages were down from 18 Volts to 16 volts. Which was...

      ASUS FX505GD shuts off after POST — no BIOS, power button unresponsive
      by brav1ez
      Hello everyone,
      I have an ASUS TUF Gaming FX505GD that's powering on, showing the ASUS logo for about 2 seconds with keyboard backlight, then immediately shuts off. After it shuts down, the power button does nothing until I unplug the laptop completely. No fans spin afterward either.

      I’ve tried:
      - CMOS reset
      - Removing the SSD/HDD
      - Reseating RAM (removing each stick individually stops boot completely)
      - Cleaning up recently applied thermal paste around CPU/GPU and nearby VRM components (issue persists)

      With...

      Asrock z97x starts then shuts off after 4 seconds, sometimes more, no post
      by chaos-theory
      I have a really weird problem, this motherboard was working normally, someday it just started and all fans were running but didn't want to post, tried resetting bios, checking CPU and it was getting warm tried external gpu, flashed bios with programmer, but same problem.
      Next day after several attempts the board goes into protection mode, no more staying on, I turn on the PSU fans starts directly turning, it used to not start until I press the pwr button, now it starts directly and fans spins, and shuts off after 3 seconds sometimes less, then won't start again unless I unplug the PSU and...
