Can't get sound from the wireless subwoofer

PAIRING THE JBL SB400 FOR WIRELESS OPERATION
After turning the soundbar and subwoofer on for the first time, you will need to "pair" the subwoofer and soundbar so they both operate at the same wireless frequency. To pair the units, press the Wireless Pairing switches on both units within 30 seconds of each other. The units will communicate with each other and operate at the same frequency.

To connect powered speakers and/or subwoofers follow the instructions on page 19. Connect the powered speakers from the Main L and Main R.outputs
"MAIN (STEREO) jack: The stereo (MAIN L,R) bus signal which has passed through the MAIN MASTER control and graphic equalizer."
for the subwoofers set the YAMAHA SPEAKER PROCESSING switch on/off for best sound as desribed on page 13.
To test this I would play the song Let's Go by Calvin Harris.
for best results use a matched pair of speakers and subwoofers
such as the Electro Voice Live ELX112/ELX115 to the elx118p subwoofer.

This worked for me. Try it and it should work for you all as well..;-)

Frequently asked questions See all FAQs Question How do I get the main unit to recognize the subwoofer? Answer Wireless connection will set up automatically when you switch on both the main unit and subwoofer.
Sometimes you may encounter the problem that the main unit does not recognize the subwoofer. Try the following process to solve the problem:

• They are heavily interfered by other wireless home appliance such wireless network, TV etc. Move the subwoofer to another place, the main unit will auto detect & recognize it.
• Switch off the main unit and the subwoofer and then switch on them again. The main unit should recognize the subwoofer automatically.

If neither of the above works, try to pair with them manually.

1. In standby mode, press and hold the button on the main unit (PAIR flashes on the display screen.) to activate signal transmitting.
2. Press and hold the PAIR button on the rear of the subwoofer (You will find the LED indicator on the subwoofer flashes in blue and green alternatively) to activate signal receiving.

The wireless connection will set up automatically and the main unit should recognize the subwoofer now.

Yesterday I installed the Pioneer DEH-2050MPG in an old Beetle I just bought, and had the same problem. The instructions were completely useless; Ignore them.

Here's how to set the time...

1. Hold the source button down until clock starts flashing.
2. Use arrow buttons to set time.
3. Press source again to save.

That's what worked for me.

Unplug all of the speakers and power on.Its possible that one of the speakers is causing the protection circuit to activate.If powered on and subwoofer works start reconnecting one speaker at a time( after powered off) and retest each time.One Speaker may be bad.Its also possible the output ic is failing under a speaker load.There are no fuses related to this issue.If its not a speaker problem then the subwoofer will need to be serviced.

There could be a number of reasons causing this malfunction, try replacing the subwoofer's cord, it might be damaged, you can also try reseting the system to the factory settings according to the following instructions: Reset Instructions: 1. Press the power button to turn off the power 2. Press the power button while pressing the ENTER button. (note: this will reset all memory) Good Luck
