Kenwood KRF-V5060D Receiver - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

It sounds to me like you are using the receiver in surround sound mode and the click you hear is the center channel turning off. If you have another center channel speaker, try swapping that for the one you are currently using. If that doesn't fix the issue, then try replacing the speaker wire. If that still doesn't fix it, then the issue is probably inside the receiver and may be either an output transistor that is failing when hot or an electrolytic capacitor that allows too much DC offset when hot.

I have the same problem and I fix it by pushing on the display with my finger. For a while the light appear again, but it's just a shortcut.

I had the same problem with my Kenwood KRF 5060d First just sometimes I used to hear this noise click clack from the device while the sound disappeared. Then the problem became more frequent and no mere bearable. So I've tryed to restablish the weldings on the board in correspondence to the speakers connections and the relay connections. Nothing changed, so I've substituted the relay OMRON G5PA 28 NW 12VDC 2 contacts normally open (6 pins) with the new FINDER 40.52 (8 pins) letting free the 2 pins for the normally close contacts. Now my KRF 5060d is working properly with the only problem that sometimes the dispaly disappear and I have to apply a little pression on it with my fingers in order switch it on. Maybe I've compromised some contacts in the frontal pannel while unmounting even if it wasn't necessary.

• Here is the manual you requested - KRF-V5060D http://manual.kenwood.com/files/B60-5676-00.pdf

• Hope this helps.

Why guess? Get the manual out and actually look at the settings to see if they're out in space somewhere. If you don't try to understand what went wrong you will repeat it.

Thanks...

You have a component (probably a transistor) that is overheating, or possibly a capacitor going bad. The circuit board will have to be troubleshot, and the bad component identified. Fortunately, heat problems can be figured out by buying some Freeze Spray (Freon), and when the unit acts up, you spray suspected components, slowly...until it works again. This will identify which component you need to replace by unsoldering, etc. I would start in the power supply area, if you can identify it...chances are that's where your problem is. Good luck, hope this helps.

Does it go into standby when it's in another mode like : Cd or Video 1 or tape?

When you state that you checked the power amp IC's , how so did you do this?

Thanks n' let me know.

Contact Kenwood website - usually a malfunction in the unit requiring service, and you cannot reset it. HOWEVER, try the usual unplug, wait and plug-in again. Make sure that there's not a shorted speaker - so unplug all speakers and try using just headphones. Also, make sure you have air ventilation around the unit - nothing on top of it, as that will cause it to overhead and shutdown. Try these items and report back. Good Luck!

CHECK THE DVD PLAYER SETUP AND THE RECIEVER SETUP,,IF YOUR USING RCA JACKS ,,THEY WANT WORK,,,OPTICAL CABLE OUT ,,I WOOD USE THAT ITS THE BEST

CHECK UR SPEAKER WIRES,,,,,ALL CONNECTIONS

MAKE SURE YOU HAVE ALL THE AUDIO SELECTIONS ON UR PS3 CHECK THE BOXES ,,IN THE AUDIO SETUP

it sounds like the power amp needs to be replaced , it will eventually quit

Hi - You can download the manual from the link underlined in blue below:

Please update the question & let us know if the information given was useful to you - Good Luck!

You should find out who does the service for your reciever in your area. This type of fault can get fairly involved. It will require trouble shooting and then ordering the necessary parts.

The fault can be the motor, or the electroncs in the servo drive amplifier for the motor.

First a couple of questions:
1) Does the panel seem to behave this way more after the set warms up or is it just random?
2) Is anything else effected or are you just loosing the front panel display?

Thanks,
