F61 - error code. This will trigger if the unit has gone into overload to avoid further damaged to other parts. The common causes of this error code. 1. Output IC - this is the most common caused of the error code. Once shorts happened to this IC, it will trigger the error code. Exposure to high volume and/or running in the long time will caused this IC to shorts and produce an overload. 2. Shorted Speaker - if one of your speakers shorts, error code will appear also. This may isolate by disconnecting the speaker to the set and play the unit *****. If the symptom still there the fault came from the unit itself. 3. Shorted Inputs - inputs connector is also prone to shorts due to frequent bending and pulling. To isolate this from fault, disconnect all the inputs connected to the unit like the aux input, antenna, mic, etc. 4. Faulty power supply - once gone to out-of-regulation condition, the error code will appear to protect the most expensive parts from further damaged.Bad solder joints in this section is also to consider. 5. Faulty Fan and its circuitry - F61 will appear only after a minute of operation not upon powering on the unit. Check the fan if working or not... Also, check whether your unit is still within the warranty period, because the manufacturer will fix it for free.

The drive ic is shorted or there is a small transistor that is bad not having the unit on a bench is is hard to track down the part. But it is a easy fix if you find the service manual and can do soldering the manual will tell you where to find the part that is making to run away! The main thing is to find the parts is you find the # on the parts I can or you can look up those parts. Good luck.

It is better to just replace it, parts are not sold to the public.

Have you tried cleaning the unit, there are discs to do that, 4 years is a long time?

hi, hi, take the cover off, airdust it , check wiring harness on main board and back board. resecure. while leaving the cover off get a table fan and point air at it while its on. if it behaves you can now build yourself a internal fan out of an old computer fans .. jm

Turn the volume down to less than half. Try each of the input select switches, and make sure the monitor switch is in the proper position, If you have not used this stereo before, make sure the jumpers are connected on the back of the unit from PRE OUT to MAIN IN. (If it was working OK and now it is not, the connectors on the back are fine..)

On some systems F61 is to do with the fan not working properly, sometimes blocked with dust. On others it's a power amplifier failure. Yours does sound like a power amp problem, but both should be checked.

Of course you can!

Hi if u have checked everything out the only thing left is to replace the IC.amplifier chip which is bolted to the large silver heat sink...when u replace make sure u put some new heat sink compound on the IC ..if u don't know how to use a soldering iron properly don't attempt to do it u can easily destroy the new IC chip with heat .cheers

WHAT IS QUESTION

First, I'm not a Technics tech. * Normally I would suggest to check for warranty, but this unit is outdated. * Try to contact ; https://www.technics.com/us/support/ *** The following is for information only.*** * The following vid shows the speed switch on the left. If it's not tracking then there may be a problem in the selector switch, sync tracking, or motor drive. * You may want to check the "window" or sensor of the the speed sync light (the orange light). Wipe down the lamp and the peep hole where the sensor is located (on or near the lamp) * Wipe down the outer edge of the turn table to clean the metal "dots" or "bars" on the rim. This is what the sensor reads to determine speed. * Speed controls and direct drive turntable are not customer serviced parts (other than replacement of the component). * Example of play; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUaywfmnvt0 * Closer look at auto play feature; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7RURSnbSz4 * SL-1510 Mk2 repair; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Unf0rtQI0Us * SL-1900 repair; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0HTskP4Wak * SL-1210 repair; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKpQ3j6WzXQ * SL-23 repair;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTTLkQosBzc * Repeating Return problem; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-tel1eKu9YI * SL-1200 Speed changes(sync); https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jVws5t25XPk * SL-1300 Speed problem; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Dg-S0QPaek * SL-1200 Very DEEP level repair; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEvOpKsJMRo Aloha, ukeboy57

Hi,

I had the same system... still have the remote if you're interested in it?
Regards, Gary.

The first thing to do is check the connection to the TV. Is the right output from the TV actually connected? Check your cables from the TV to the amp.

Trash it, There are no repair parts available. Why spend several hundreds of dollars for test equipment, that you have need of
