Denon AVR-3805 7.1 Channels Receiver

Denon AVR-3805 (by 4 users)

posted by lwf3 on May 17, 2008


I have a Denon AVR-3805. It works great. However, today I'm having a problem even switching it on! It is in standby mode with the red light around the standby button is flashing. When I switch the sytem on it comes on for just a few seconds and then immediately truns off and goes back to standby mode with the red light flashing again. Any ideas what is wrong? I disconnected all the inputs and output connections to no avail. I tried to reinitialize the processor to no avail. Any suggestions???? Thanks, Lance

My Denon 3805 also shuts down for unexplained reasons. Recently, it has turned off completely. When I press the "on" button, it turns from red to green but nothing else lights up. Is an authorized Denon dealer my only option?

Exact same problem. Unit turns itself off after a few seconds or after a couple of minutes. Nothing has changed on our system nor have the room conditions changed to cause any type of flucuation. This is extremely frustrating and nothing you have posted works.

It's likely that you have shorted some speaker outputs, I had that problem and sorted it. Unfortunately it does mean replacing some output transistors..the devices are dificult to get to just to add insult to injury. They are the devices that are mounted directly onto the large heatsink and solder connected to the bottom circuit board. You only have to change the matched pair that you have blown....tricky to identify which ones without some electronics knowledge. The power output section does have some fuses to protect it but sadly these do not appear to be fast enough to stop "one" from damaging the power output stage if you unfortunately short outputs. The transistors are available from Farnell, use pin compatible replacements SAP15N and SAP15P.....all the best. Doctor Bill
