Audio Systems: Denon AVR-1801 Receiver Shuts Down., denon avr 1801, ohm resistors


Question
Hello, After reading a few suggestion on the internet about my Denon AVR-1801 I am unable to fix the problem this receiver has.  It shut down after turning it on and goes into a "Standby" mode.  I replaced the four 1 ohm resistors near the power connection socket on the board but it still goes into stand by.  Any idea's would help.  Thank you. Ian

Answer
If the 1 ohm resistors were burned out it is likely the output transistors are defective, too.  Does it shut down even when the speaker wires are all disconnected from the back panel of the receiver? If so, it is almost for certain one or more of the power transistors/modules are shorted down and need replacement.

Hope this helps.

PS: Don't forget to do a hard reset; unplug the power cord for 30 minutes.
