When watching TV the video will go black for 3 to 4 seconds then come back on. When this happens the audio continues. Some times this happens every 5 to 10 minutes then other times it happens every 2 to 3 minutes. It is especially bad when I first turn the system on. Also if I put in a DVD to play there is no problem. I have connected the unit to a different TV and the same thing happens. So in my opinion I have isolated the problem to the receiver's HDMI1 output. The unit is about 6 years old. So what is my next move?

Check surround mode on the on-screen menu of the amp

SOURCE: no audio

I Have Problem with Marantz SR5500. An accessories, a remote controller has ben broken . I would like to replace. If I could where would I can get this remote controller

SOURCE: marantz sr5001 has pcm light flashing

I suppose pcm light means that the pcm mode is turned on (pcm meaning pulse code modulation), in other words, the unit was switched to digital signal, so if the digital rca or optical TV input on your reciever is not connected to anything, then you're not getting any signal into the reciever in digital mode. You probably just need to switch the unit back to analog mode (see if there is a button that says something like digital/analog, pcm/analog, optical/coax or similar, try pressing it, see if there is any change).

I might just be totally wrong on this, however, probably the best way to learn what happened is to read the user manual if you do have it (see what the pcm light signals for and check any chapters inside the manual related to that topic).

good luck

SOURCE: Input signals Marantz SR4003

There are four digital connectors on the back of the unit: 2 optical and 2 coaxial. They are marked a s 1 2 3 4. 1 and 2 are optical, 3 and 4 - coaxial. Also you have front optical connector marked as F.
You can connect 5 digital sources to your receiver. For example, connect your DVD to input 2 (optical) by optical cable and connect your DSS to input 3 by coaxial cable. Assign DVD to digital 2 and DSS to digital 3 in input setup menu.

SOURCE: I have a Marantz SR5500 and the unit will not stay powered on.

I have this problem. it is caused by an o/c mains transformer primary winding. the clicking and flashing light is the stanbyy circuit trying to switch the power on to the main (large) transformer when it gets no voltage out it switches back off
