    Denon AVR-S900W receiver repair struggles

    I picked up a Denon AVR-S900W with no power. Eventually I found a shorted 5339 3.3v regulator chip/ic on the hdmi board. I replaced that and was able to power on the receiver but it behaved oddly. Some of the buttons on the front wouldn't work, the volume knob wouldn't work and it didn't output any hdmi signal. I thought I may have soldered the new chip on wrong so I took it off and did some searching around. Apologies for the lack of zoom to see things more clearly.

    Service manual, on the page in question:
    https://www.manualslib.com/manual/95...age=125#manual

    Screenshot of same page, with my problem area.


    The two ic's in the middle of the screenshot are the 5339 ones. If you can make it out, they both output 3.3v to a shared line with a resistor connecting the two. That resistor doesn't exist, but the pads do. With one ic installed, I'm getting the expected 3.3v on one pad, but I still get 1.1XX volts on the other pad that should only be connected to the other ic which has been removed. I expected to get 0v there.

    I tested the 6 pin ic's that each line feeds and they all test the same via a diode test - So I don't suspect one of allowing current to backflow.

    I am relatively new to this and this is the deepest I've gotten into a repair so far. I don't know if the short in the ic heated up some traces in the pcb and shorted them out. I'm also a bit up against my understanding of circuit design and how to make sense of what I'm seeing with my voltmeter or what I should be looking for at this point. Any hints or tips are greatly appreciated.

    Thanks

    Hello, My name is Michael i am new on this forum, saw your thread on Denon AVR-s900w, wondering if you managed to fix it, i have Denon AVR-2312 which is dead, i have checked the voltages there is 5.2 volts coming from the SMPS to the HDMI board, i have seen 5v going to the input of all the DC to DC converter IC but there is no output, i have the schematic of the same, would appreciate if you could guide m on this.

      Denon AVR-2700H audio stops while receiver still works
      by Cornito
      Hello team,

      I've got a new issue with a Denon Avr-2700H.
      After several minutes working, receiver stops playing sound with a poc eared in the speakers.
      Receiver still work and display video with error message on display.
      Seems to me that is the main output relay.

      I'm looking for the service manual that I can't find for the moment.

      Does somebody have it?

      Regards...

      Hi Friends!



      I have a Denon PMA 350SE receiver,the remote controller-sensor pcb panel is missing from inside and without this it not even powering on by the main switch.
      So there are two connector left one 8 pin and one 3 pin.

      Would be Someone so kind and tell me which pin should connet to where,to make it work?

      I attached the service manual and pictures from the connectors.

      Thank You for the answer,and best wishes!...

      wireless receiver for 6 speeds fan control with remote control
      by wolf1976
      hi i have a receiver that is destroyed from the overvoltage i guess
      my question is has three wires u v w for driving a motor fan i found an other receiver wireless from aliexpresss with the same propertiew but for dc motor
      the motor fan has not label
      i have an other receiver operational
      In your opinion can i measure the voltage at the output ?
      what do you suggest me with a simple instrument multimeter or using someone instrument more specific ?
      thanks in advance...

      DSE GE6878 possible TV receiver dying remote not working well
      by CdDvdFlash
      For this Dick Smith TV GE6878 (Thompson) I replaced the broken remote with a universal it kinda works though if its more than a few meters away sometimes the buttons register and sometimes they wont so I bought another remote from another brand and it has the same problem, I've had an old TV in the past that the sensor died completely and I replaced it to fix it could this be a similar problem? 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...

      Diagnosing NAD receiver -- unexplained shut-downs
      by JordanW
      Everyone -- I am trying to troubleshoot my NAD C740 stereo receiver, which either won't power on or won't consistently stay powered on.

      I will start by saying that I am a hobbyist, and while I am decently handy with basic DC stuff, I am more hesitant when it comes to mains-powered equipment (that is, reluctant to poke around with a multimeter when it is powered on)

      The central issue is that after a long period of non-use, the receiver powers on and all functions seem to behave normally, but after a couple of minutes, it powers itself off.

      If I attempt...
