I have found that others have had the same problem with this model. I am just curious as to what specific parts I can try and replace to fix the problem. I have heard it may be the voltage regulator / ics. If anyone would be generous enough to supply me with specific part numbers that would be a blessing. Poor girl, who doesn't have the money to take it to a service tech. and/or buy a new stereo! Thanks in advance.
hi! mine has got the same problem...i've noticed the cooling fan at the back is also not working...i found out that its comming from an STK# with a different IC which connecting to speakers

Gotta love F61........the stereo turns on long enough to show the error code then shuts itself down. Should I consider it a junker and trash it?
I'm in the same boat sick of the darn thing turning itself off error code F61. I thought I had a good product until now! anyone with any ideas on this would be good. But looking through here seems all the panasonic models crash like this in the end.
