Marantz SR6001 AV Surround Receiver - Blinking Standy Light

Unit is in standby mode (standby light flashing).

Pressing power button on front panel has no effect.

pressing power buttons on remote has no effect

cycling power has no effect (unit goes right back into standby as soon as power comes back on).

unplugging/replugging power (unit goes right back into standby as soon as power comes back on)

unit is plugged into Panamax PM 5300-PM line conditioner switched bank,
so I don't thnink this could have been caused by power fluctuation.

Yep. I have the same issue. System shuts down after a short period of time even after disconnecting the power cored for 3+ minutes. I notice the "protect5" appears on the dosplay before it switches off. Any recommendations? Yep. I have the same issue.

I have the same problem. Unplugging does not help, neither does pushing the multi speaker button and the power button the same time.

Help please. I have the same problem. Unplugging does not help, neither does pushing the multi speaker button and the power button the same time.

Bought this unit in November 2008 from Kromer Radio in Toronto. In January 2009, the unit simply shut down and went into protection mode. Kromer has been of little help so far, simply suggesting I unplug it and starting up again in a few minutes. That worked the first time for a few minutes, now it can't be restarted. As this is a discontinued system, Kromer only offered to up sell me to the next unit or take this one back to the factory for a repair for a few weeks. I am concerned that a "fix" will not last. Has anyone tried this route yet? Bought this unit in November 2008 from Kromer Radio in Toronto. In January 2009, the unit simply shut down and went into protection mode.

I have the same problem on an SR6001 which is about 10 months old. I've since sent it back under warranty so will wait to see the outcome. My unit went into this protect mode about two or three times a month after being on for about 20 minutes. A simple power off and on would clear the issue and the unit worked fine.
