Power up problem on my receiver

I have a Yamaha R-V501 receiver that powers up fine for about 2 seconds but then I hear a click and the receiver shuts itself off. Do I have a fuse issue or is it something more serious?

After a power outage my denon 2803 receiver will not turn on.
Hello. First unplug and replug in your receivers. When you push the power button, you should hear 1 click. Within 5 seconds, you should hear a second click. Can you please tell me the results?

Thank you.

'clicking' off a few seconds after turned on
Does the receiver work OK?
These are probably electromechanical switches (called relays) which yamaha uses a lot. They use electricity to connect/disconnect something by magnetic force and this causes the "clicks". It is used for example to connect the speakers to the output of apmlifier only after it has finished initializing to protect both the amp and the speakers.
When I turn on my RX-V465 I hear at least one click, it is probably connecting power to the amp. When turning it on with Radio button on remote I hear 3 clicks over 2-3 seconds.
So these clicks are normal and nothing to worry about. They occur also when you switch to the PURE DIRECT mode.

My Yamaha RX-V661 shuts off at moderate volumes.
Try to disconnect speakers one by one and see if any of them causes the problem.

When push the power button, I can hear a relay click but the unit will not power up. I took the cover off and fuses are good. Can't find anything in the trouble shooting section of the manual. What do you...
When the unit functions correctly, you should hear 2 clicks. The first is the power relay that "starts" the unit. The second is the speaker protection relay that will kick in the speaker connection. If you do not hear the second click, the unit is in protect mode. This means that a problem was detected in the amp section and the unit is prevented from connecting the speakers. This is done to prevent further damage. Typically the output transistors fail and cause this. Expect a parts cost in the $25-$50 range for this repair.

Immediate shut
Unplug all the speaker wires first, then unplug the unit from the wall for at least 24 hours, The plug back in without the speaker wires or anything else plugged in. Then see if it goes to the protection mode. If it does not, plug in each speaker at a time, and see if any speaker, when hooked up, makes the receiver shut down. If it does shut down, My friend, I'm afraid you will need to take this unit into a repair shop, OR get a new unit. Good Luck

Yamaha Receiver RX-V630 not working (resets itself immediately)
This maybe an easy one. Have you unhooked all the wires going in to the stereo. "SP wires" means you have wires to the speakers are touching and the stereo is shutting down to avoid overloading. Hope this helps...

Yahama receiver Rx-630 not working
The problem might be caused by two major circumstances. 1)Touching wires 2)Overheating. I suggest you unplug all wires connected to the amp then turn on the amp. If it gets turned on then we know that the problem is that you have touching wires. If there is a short circuit somewhere, get rid of it. The ventilation is another important issue that you have to pay attention. It simply causes overheating.
