Sound Volume control will not control the volume. The Knob Spins but does not control the volume. The remote controls the volume but it is now lost. I need a new remote control and volume control repair. Is it possible something inside is loose in the volume mechinism??

    I have the same problem. Volume control will not adjust volume. It just spins around.

    I have the same problem. I have also had a few other problems with my GX-70. The cd player has been repaired twice and is in need of repair again (I don't use it anymore). The sub woofer outlet is faulty and works intermittently. The repair person told me that here in Australia, there were many units with the same problems.

I have a ge gtd 120 home theatre surround sound.for some reason, my volume is stuck on one level.. I haven't had a remote for it for a while, just used the knob to adjust the volume.someone plz help!
Unless the system has some kind of automatic volume control on it, that can only be adjusted by the remote. I think you might have a faulty volume/tone control circuit. These days many amps have a single IC that will control the volume. If that goes the volume can get stuck on one level. Since the control knob you are turning is simply sending a signal to that IC. So if the IC has died the signal is not being received.
If you want to repair it yourself just follow the wires back to the board from the volume control. You should see a large multi pin black box that if your lucky is marked on the board volume control.

Volume / audio control knob
Hi, did you ever get this fixed, if so for how much and where. I have the same problem with my knob, it does not control the volume level but you can still access the other functions that require you to push the knob, like a button. My remote battery is dead so I have not being able to test it, it's just the knob no longer controls the volume.

Volume control does not turn volume down. Lost remote control CD Receiver LT-1
I have opened the same unit up. The volume control knob moves a plastic paddle against a right & left micro switches. The paddle is connected to the knob by a very thin piece of plastic which breaks very easily. I tried to glue a different piece of plastic on , but it only worked for a little while. It was a pain to assemble & reassemble the unit. I do not recommend trying it. Just buy another remote (about $35.00)!
Good Luck

Broken volume knob
I located the remote control for the unit and it works fine. As the unit is not the primary amplifier for the home stereo system, I use the remote to control the volume. Thank you for your quick responce, and I will keep you in mind for any future needs.

Volume control on unit
Kent, Unfortunately, it sounds as if the encoder is broken. The encoder is a digital input which takes the place of a traditional volume control, and is what holds the volume knob in place and spins. Since it works fine with the remote, that means everything else is ok, but you will have to replace, or have a tech replace, the encoder itself.

It has lost partially the mechanical connection between the volume control knob and the volume control pot.
The knob could be "stripped". A drop of a slightly resilient glue should do the trick. Do not use rigid adhesives, as this will prevent future service to this area of your receiver....accordianman
