Plugged in my pioneer today for the first time and the light on the unit is flashing red. owners manual says it is in protection mode yet I can not seem to get it out of this protection mode
Disconnect all speakers from it, then turn it back on. If the unit is OK, it should come out of protection. Turn it off, then reconnect one speaker and power on, repeat until it goes into protection, then you know where the problem is. Now disconnect the speaker wire that caused the problem but this time at the speaker. Make sure your wires do not touch, then turn it back on. If it stays on, it's a speaker problem, if it shuts off it's a wire problem. If you still need more help, post a comment and I will help some more. Hope this helps
Unit is in protect mode. Hold "advanced Surround" button and power switch for a couple seconds and it should turn on. If it turns back off, disconnect all your speaker wires and try again. If it still shuts off, the amp is bad and needs to go in for repair.
