it could be a screen cable fault. there is not much info on this model but would believe it would be the 2 cables on the lcd. if its the old tube type tv, when its been transported something could of come loose inside cable or a soldered part, to you would have a dry joint hope this helps

Go to "menu/Setup/Speaker level" and adjust the balance of L-R.See page 21 of the manual:http://usa.yamaha.com/products/audio-visual/av-receivers-amps/rx/rx-v540/?mode=model

Since it lacks a PHONO preamp, get one.

If it's still sufficiently loud, why bother replacing it? Our hearing is subjective. Do all sources exhibit a lower level than you remember? If not, what's unique about the audio signal path for 'movies'.

Let's just treat this as self-protection:

Make sure all speaker connections are tight.

Make sure the Impedance Selector switch it set fully in one of its two positions.

Generally speaking, an amp protects itself from heat, shorts and overloads.

Overloads can be from excessive periods of high output and shorts would be wiring issues or a speaker blowing up.

You should be able to feel if it's hot. WHY is it overheating? Make sure it has sufficient ventilation on all sides and that vent holes are not blocked by dust balls. Ensure the fan (if equipped) is running as designed (some only operate on demand). Clean dust and debris from it.

If the amp comes back on after cooling, you're lucky. They only have so many self-protection cycles in their lives so continuously resetting or cycling their power without addressing the cause can do more harm than good.

If it protects immediately on a cool power up you should disconnect the speaker connections and try it 'naked'. If it comes up then diagnose which lead(s) are shorted. If it does not come up the problem is internal and should be left to an experienced hands-on tech.

"Opening" ... Please explain what you mean.

Yes if it has a suitable speaker connection available and is nominally 8 ohms impedance Speaker and AV.

Being from 1985 or there abouts, it probably needs some TLC at a Yamaha service centre. May need new capacitors and resolder dry joints for age related issues.

WD-40 ... Very dangerous as it not only flammable when wet but is bad for electrical contacts as it leaves a residue behind that does not conduct electricity very well. Check speaker connections first.

(francais) hello in my issue the probleme was a little resistor r027 it's in this red zone and very ugly. easy to find. a friend was unsolded the resistor and weld a little wire after wash with isopropanole alcool. the resistor test the tension when we plug usb thing. less the resistor the usb ports don't work. you can buy r027 for 2 euros for 100 pieces.... or 2 euros for 5 10 pieces (funny).
