Hi guys.. A couple weeks back we had a brown out where the voltage dropped for about 5 seconds and my RX-V1000 shut off and woulden't come back on... only a click. I tried leaving it unplugged for an hour hoping it would reset itself and it sort of did, it turned on but only for about 5 seconds then shut off again.. so I dropped it off at the local yamaha repair guy and he said he hooked it up to his diagnostic machine and reset it and it was working fine... so $40 later I bring it home and plug it in and it turns on but as soon as I touch any other buttons it shut's off immedietly... but now when it comes back on it says "check speaker connections" then functions like normal until I touch any buttons on the panel.... it will stay turned on fine forever until I try and do something with it... (i've tried it with NOTHING plugged in the rear, and with speakers, no difference)
SO i've done some googling on it and all I can find is a suggestion to look for a strand of speaker wire that may be shorting it and I can't find anything.. I've pulled the cover off blown around the connections but haven't found anything suspicious inside either..
any help appreciated, I really like my 1000 and didn't plan on upgrading just yet :-(
