Redlegs_base,

I would be more than happy to help with this. There isn't a place to purchase individual parts for our receivers. The humming may be from the fan still receiving power, but if the receiver itself won't turn on we would have to send out a replacement.

Make sure the receiver is plugged directly into the wall, and not into a power strip or surge protector. If the problem continues, can you send me an email at [email protected] with the account or phone # so I can look into a possible replacement?

yes your signal is very good but it hangs up, the most important is the quality of your picture, cause signal is composed of so many impurities including noise, so dish be orientated once more.thanks.

Bypass that surgeprotector, if one, try another outlet, if that does not work, call Dishnetwork to have it replaced. If under warrantee, you are covered if not, add the service plan, $6 a month and you are covered, free!

My Bose lifestyle 5 subwoofer appears to be performing at a significantly lower power level. Is there a fuse problem that would cause this?

Yes, a fuse problem could potentially cause a lower power output from your Bose Lifestyle 5 subwoofer. If the subwoofer is not receiving sufficient power, it may result in reduced performance. Here are some steps to check for a fuse-related issue:
  1. Locate the fuse: Refer to the user manual or documentation for your Bose Lifestyle 5 system to determine the location of the fuse in the subwoofer. It is usually located on the back of the subwoofer or inside a fuse compartment.
  2. Check the fuse visually: Inspect the fuse to see if it is blown or damaged. A blown fuse will typically have a broken filament or a discolored appearance. If you find a blown fuse, proceed to the next step.
  3. Replace the fuse: Purchase a replacement fuse that matches the specifications of the original fuse. Carefully remove the blown fuse and insert the new one in its place. Make sure to follow the correct orientation and ensure a secure connection.
  4. Test the subwoofer: After replacing the fuse, reconnect the subwoofer to power and audio sources. Turn on the system and test the subwoofer to see if the power level has improved. Listen for any changes in sound quality or volume.

My house was hit by lightning which killed my TV, Spectrum box and Denon receiver. Could the fuse possibly be replaced to rectify receiver issue?

It's possible that the fuse in your Denon receiver has blown due to the lightning strike. However, replacing the fuse alone may not necessarily fix the issue, as other components may have also been damaged by the electrical surge.

If you're comfortable working with electronics and have experience with troubleshooting and repairing electronic equipment, you may be able to replace the fuse yourself. However, if you're not confident in your abilities, it's best to take your receiver to a professional technician who can properly diagnose and repair any damage.

To purchase a replacement fuse, you can check the manufacturer's website or contact their customer support to get a part number and locate a dealer or authorized service center. You can also try searching for the part number online or checking with electronics parts suppliers. Be sure to purchase the correct type and rating of fuse for your specific receiver model.

Could it be a blown fuse in my brand new car the reason power outlets are non operational

the outlet may only be active when the key is the Acc or run position.

Suggest that you try DVD on another car it is possible the 12 volt DC operation in the new DVD is not working but the power cord does.

It is easy to pop the fuse when inserting the adapter. When you find and replace the fuse buy a spare.

Car manual will show fuse location. It is likely a 15 amp.

hope this helped?

Hi, I have a Harman Karddon sub - woofer. when I changed the fuse I get a humming sound. I would like to know if the type as in (2.5a 250v typeT) make a difference/

Fuses are either blown or not. The hum is from an ungrounded or unshielded cable somewhere.

What required the fuse to be changed in the first place?
