Hello
There is always a constant 5v for the device to go to standby.and power on when you press the power button .
This flashing is not to reset the device it shows that there is a problem with power supply.
the regulators are burned or over voltage ...
it needs service .
hope this helps
good luck

2 Press X ON/STANDBY while simultaneously pressing PRESET CH + and PRESET
CH -.
3 Once the display starts flashing at intervals of about 1 second, release the two
buttons

Main board fault. Contact any service technician.

if the receiver does not power on from standby there is a problem like bad power supply or even bad macroprocessor. You need to bring it to a service center for diagnosing. 10-years old receiver, maybe better to buy new one.

If the light is staying on after you unplug the AC power this means you have a short in the loop some where that is giving power to the receiver.

Try unplugging all connection to the receiver except for your speakers. Next hold down the power button for 45 to 60 seconds. Doing this will clear the flee power off the system board. Next plug back in the AC adapter and the receiver should turn on. If it does not then there is a problem with the receiver it self. If you did have a device shorting/grounding out to the receiver over time it would have damaged the receiver.

Let me know how things go

If the light on the media reciever doesn't come on then the power supply in that needs to be replaced by a service tech. If you disconnect the 2 cables from the media reciever and the panel and then try to turn on the panel it should light with red and green squares for a few seconds but will turn off as it needs the media reciever to be connected.

WOOHOO!! I fixed this issue... same problem as everyone else has mentioned... to reset the Kenwood VR-606 receiver, unplug the unit. Hold the power button down and while holding the power button plug the unit in.
Say a prayer...
Then press the power button.
My display isn't working, but my speakers are working, and that's really all I care about right now... good luck to others!
