I have an optimus stav 3670 that won't turn on. I have located 3 fuse which all test good. No lights or sound when power button pushed. Continuity from plug end all the way to transformer. I'm hoping there is a 4th fuse that I can't locate. No hot spot failure observed on any of the pc boards. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thank you.

Is your receiver plugged directly into a wall outlet; use your voltmeter (or in absence of one, a desk lamp or some other small appliance) into each of the duplex receptacles. I have gone on service calls where the outlet was defective- where one side of the duplex receptacle had power to it, while the lower branch was dead.
Or is your receiver plugged into a power strip / surge protector?
Check to make sure that the internal breaker (if so equipped) did not "trip". I would also check each of the outlets on the strip to make sure they have power going to them too. One could be out while the rest are fine.
The reason why I say this, is you mentioned you have continuity (the potential path for electricity to complete its circuit) but you did not mention if you are getting voltage (energized) from the plug to the transformer.
Check voltage readings at the power "on-off button too- remember, a switch is just a break in the line current. That may be defective.

    Thanks for the suggestion. I should have indicated that I had power too instead of just continuity. I've tested and used several outlets. When unit was working, pushing the power button would energize a "relay" (semi-loud click) and I get nothing at all. That is why I was wondering about a possible 4th fuse that I can't find. Any other thoughts would be appreciated. Thank you.

    Mike I can't find any online wiring schematics for your receiver. I hope there is a diagram on the inside cover of yours. Most likely the "4th" fuse you are looking for are the fusible resistors used on the circuit board. Fusible resistors are resistors that are designed to "open" without flames when overloaded- they are sometimes called flameproof resistors. Reading the circuit board at pin outs R319, R320, R1319, and R1320 are 100 OHM (+5%) 1/4 watt fused resitors; so you'll have to take resistance readings at the component level. 4.7 OHM (+5%) 1/4 watt fusible resistors are used at pin outs R333, R334, R335, R336, R337, R338, R339, R340, R1333, R1334, R1335, R1336, R1337, R1338, R1339, and R1340- according to the parts list for your receiver. Hope this helps.

I have a mitsubishi 48" integrated 1080. The Timer green light keeps blinking. I have no picture. Can this be the fuse? My coworkers say this might be the problem. Can I replace it myself? If so, where is it located?

I turn my receiver on then it says "powering off" right away everytime i turn it off. I hope you can help. thanks

Looks like a rebadged Pioneer if it is, one of the output channels has probably been damaged and it shuts down to protect the rest of the system.
Time for service at your local HiFi dealer.

I have an optimus stav 3670 stereo reciever that wont turn on. I have located 3 fuses, all test good. No lights, click, or any sound or reaction when power button pushed. I'm hoping there is a 4th fuse...

Mike, sounds as if it's not getting voltage to the remote control receiver circuit? Meaning that there is a low voltage (5volts) that sits there and waits for the signal from your remote to turn the unit on. This is also through the front power switch which is also tied to your on-off power relay. I would check for 5 volts around that. More that likely you a 5 volt regulator shot. Hope this may help?

Kenmore Elite Model 110.42926 202 after setting the desired cycle will not start when you push the start button

see this causes and fix it. God bless you
Incoming Power Problem If the washer won't start check to see if there is power at the electrical outlet which the washer is plugged into. Plug a lamp or radio into the outlet to check it. If the outlet is dead, check the circuit breakers or fuses for the home.

Power Cord If the washer won't start, check to be sure there is power to the electrical outlet for the home. If that is OK, the power cord itself might be defective. This is rare. You can check the power cord with an Ohm meter for continuity.
User Control and Display Board If the washer won't start, the user control and display board may be defective. Check for power to the washer first.



Timer If the washer won't start the timer might be defective. This part is often misdiagnosed, check other components before replacing this timer.



Line Fuse If the washer won't start the line fuse might have blown.



Thermal Fuse If the washer won't start the thermal fuse may have blown. It can be tested for continuity. Watch our fuse testing video for more information.



Line Fuse and Holder If the washer won't start the line fuse might have blown, or the line fuse holder might be damaged and need to be replaced.

Main Control Board If the washer won't start the main control board might be defective. This is not common. Check other parts and causes first.



Door or Lid Latch Assembly If the washer won't start the lid switch assembly might be defective. This is a very common problem. The lid switch assembly can fail either mechanically or electrically. Test any electrical switches with an Ohm meter for continuity. The switches should have continuity according to their design.



Door Lock Motor and Switch Assembly If the washer won't start the door lock assembly should be checked. The door lock can fail either mechanically or electrically. Test any switches on the door lock with an Ohm meter. The switches should have continuity according to their design.

When I turn on the STAV-3770, after the five seconds for the inital click that is ready to go, the unit turns off and back on and keeps repeating this process.

Most of these units come with a replaceable fuse in the back (about the diameter of a penny). I believe that the unit will shut itself off if the fuse is blown. Excessive use, moisture or a power surge will blow the fuse. Radio shack may have a replacement for you to buy. I would try this first, as it is a fairly inexpensive solution. If it turns out that you have a more serious electrical problem with the unit, I would consider replacing it. The new 5.1 systems are cheaper than ever, more energy efficient and sound better to boot.

Optimus STAV-3260 Digital Synthesized A/V Surround Receiver. this receiver has no power,not even a light for the standby.i already checked the fuse and its ok.

Could be several causes. Bad connection near the stand-by power transformer or the transformer itself could be open. The main Micro could be bad. This is a job best left to a servicer. Optimus was sold only by Radio Shack, they still do repairs.

''Power off ''flashes ten times after the receiver is turned on.

Most often it will require an output IC, but I have seen it be a bad ground or a transistor in the protect circuit.
