    JVC TH-C30 will not play sound. Receiver lights up and appears to be playing radio or CD, but no sound. Noticed power indicator light on sub comes on briefly when first powered up, but then goes out within a couple of seconds. Took cover off of sub and found 3 fuses, all of which are good.

    Took cover off of receiver, fuse was good there too. If I unplug the cable running from the receiver to the sub and plug it back in the power indicator light on the sub will again light back up and go back out within a couple of seconds. I hear a relay switching when the light goes on and off. I've only had this unit a couple of years and haven't used it but 3-4 times Any help would be appreciated. Lankford

I have a TH-C30. I had the same problem where the unit just stopped working - no standby light and no recognition of power at all. After checking this forum and another, I opened the unit, found the ceramic fuse where the power comes in and went to Radio Shack. They have a T1AL250V fuse pack that is a 1 amp, 250 volt, 5 X 20 mm SLOW BLOW glass fuse which is a better fuse for this common problem. Their RS number is 270-1063 and a pack of 4 costs about $3. Put new fuse in and the problem was solved.

The repair took minutes - 3 screws on the back and two screws on each side. Lift the cover from the back (it is slip-hinged on the front) and replace the ceramic fuse. It slips out with a little help and the new one snaps in place.

Cycurnin's problem was fixed! I found the problem to be a small fuse located in the reciever that was blown. Un-plug the unit, take the cover off, and right in front of the power cord coming into the unit a small fuse is located there. $2.49 for five at Radio Schack.

Check your outlet... mine worked fine for like a year but the outlet had given out... testers available at any hardware store... or try a power strip in that outlet

I have a JVC TH-C30 an it turns on but no sound. Left it off for a day then tried again.....nothing! Changed power fuse....nothing! What else could I try to make this work?
If something turns on the fuse isn't blown.

Generally speaking, an amp attempts to protect itself from heat, shorts, overloads and operator exuberance by refusing to turn on or stay on; or it may turn on but produce no audio to the speakers.

Overloads can be from excessive periods of high output or marginally low impedance loading by the speakers; and shorts would be wiring issues or a speaker blowing up.

You should be able to feel if it's hot. WHY is it overheating? Make sure it has sufficient ventilation on all sides and that vent holes are not blocked by dust balls. Ensure the fan (if equipped) is running as designed (some only operate on demand). Clean dust and debris from it.

If the amp comes back on after cooling, you're lucky. They only have so many self-protection cycles in their lives so continuously resetting or cycling their power without addressing the cause can do more harm than good.

If it protects immediately on a cool power up you should disconnect the speaker connections and try it 'nekkid'. If it comes up then diagnose which lead(s) are shorted. If it does not come up the problem is internal and should be left to an experienced and competent hands-on tech.

Check for loose speaker connections at the speaker as another possible root cause for intermittent shutdown.

When one reports a fuse replacement it would be helpful to know if that was a Hail Mary wild guess or if the fuse was indeed blown.

I have a JVC, Home Theater system. It is a TH-C30. The power button on the Subwoofer will not come on. Can you identify the problem?
I think there may be a possible chord disconnected or the fuse may be bad!

JVC TH-C30 dvd movies skip
Check your formatting on the DVD recorder, you need to finalize the disk to be playable on "any" player. That should solve the issue. Your JVC is looking for specific code as it reads the disc, when it's missing or not understood by your JVC it will either stop play or skip over it's interperated missing info. Hope this helps

If there is no power at all, then try bypassing surge protector, check power cable, and check if power cord is fused.

If unit has power but does not start, then it is on protection.

Protect mode will kicking whenever a fault is detected.

Causes that can start protect mode are:

Electrostatic harges on internal circuits.
Leave the unit unplugged for power for one hour or so, this will allow discharge.

Bad speaker wiring.
Check speaker wiring, try unplugging and plugging back, or start after removing one speaker at the time.

Internal fault.
Internal fault is the natural cause for protect mode. If all the above did not work, then the problem is a blown component or an internal fault. In this case the unit must be taken apart , tested and repaired by an experienced person.
If the unit is less than one year old, or if you want to get service, call Sony at the phone number listed on the product documentation.

Regards.

I do not know if it works but you can check the website, I am very happy with my Logitech Harmony remote. Probably overkill but you will love what you can do with these.

Unplug the JVC and the subwoofer from that outlet. Then, plug them back to a different outlet (where power is constant and not interupted by any switch.) Hope this helps
