SOURCE: Yamaha HTR-6130 Front right and left speakers with no sound

As simple as this sounds, try hitting the speaker a/b button on the front of the unit, next to the headphone jack. I had the same problem, and was about to package the whole thing back up and go back to Best Buy when I hit this button and then the audio test worked.

Hello: I have a Yamaha RX-V863 Receiver for 3 years. I try to on my receiver, but he start on, only for 2 or 3 second and then turning off immediately. I verify the wall outlet and the power in my house...

There is a load on the system, turn receiver off, disconnect speaker wires from the back, power on and turn volume right down. If the system stays on it means there is a short in the wires or one or more of the speakers. But if turns off with"wires and speakers diconnected" there is a short in one or more of the audio output ic's in the receiver and will need a professional to find out the extent of the problem.

I have a yamaha, natural Sound Av receiver RX-V483, every time that i start the unit it will shut down after 5 seconds. thank you very much

It indicates an output load problem, dis-connect the speaker wires from the back of receiver. Next power on and turn the volume right down, if the unit runs, check for shorts in the speaker wires and speakers. But if it still shuts down "with speakers and wires dis-connected" one or more of the audio output ic's is shorted and will need a professional to assess the item.

Look at inside at capacitor and fuse but they seem ok. again once i turn it on, it would automatically shuts off after a second.

When a system shuts down after a few seconds it is the self protect circuit shutting down power to the outputs to prevent (further) damage. It may be caused by frayed speaker wires, bad speaker voice coils, or blown output transistors. First, turn off power and remove all speaker wires from the receiver. Turn it back on and see if the problem remains. If it works OK, inspect each speaker wire at both ends for loose strands and correct these. Then, hook up your speakers one at a time until the problem reappears. That speaker or its' wiring is your problem. For safety's sake. turn the receiver off before connecting each speaker. An accidental short of the output terminals can be disastrous (and expensive).

Yamaha RX-V595a receiver shuts off 2 seconds after its powered on

The first thing called out is the impedance switch on the back is not fully in one or the other position. Cycle the switch back and forth to make sure it will 'read' each setting, then turn it on.

Also make sure you if you have anything connected to its convenience outlets that they are not drawing more current than is allowed.

Did you buy it used or new?

Amp worked then went on protection..

Make sure your speakers ohm levels are compatible with the amplifier. The amp is shutting itself off to protect from damage. Your amp may be setup to work with 8 ohm speakers and if you are using a 2 ohm sub-woofer it will stress out the amplifier. Some factory speakers are rated at 3 or 2 ohms. And if you have more than one speaker hooked up per channel that can stress out the amplifier. Also make sure all the speakers you are using are rated at the same ohms. Make sure all the speakers are wired the right way...+ to + and - to -. If some speakers are not wired with the positive speaker wires to the positive connection on the speaker and negative the same this can cause problems with the amp. Also make sure your power wire to the amp is large enough gauge for the amplifiers power requirements. Otherwise the amplifier might have an internal short or just cannot output the wattage needed for your system.

Yamaha receiver turns off seconds after being turned on

It sounds like the amp is going into protect mode.
Dissconnect all speakers from back of amp and then try to turn on.
If it works, you have a short on one or more of the speakers.

Yamaha rx-v461 not working

you have a faulty circuit somewhere, whether its in speaker wiring, or power source, i dont know, but your reciever has an automatic circuit breaker in it for protection, and a faulty circuit will trip it, i would assume it is a power source problem since it wont turn back on, check wiring, plugs and look around, and smell for burnt, or hot components.
