Fantastic !!! I have same problem but managed to get sound from surround speakers in bi-amp mode and analogue inputs ! I believe it is the protection relays that are not getting tripped for front main L and R and centre speakers as I still have headfone output and this is fed from front speaker amp ! I will try to reflow DSP chip again and let you know !
Have had my TX-NR616 in storage for a while after I moved to south Norway, got some new Klipsch speakers, and discovered there is no sound from the AVR. Hopefully, I can fix it using your method. If not I'm really considering picking up the Yamaha RX-V6A, as it seems like a great AV Receiver for the money.
Does the remote work at all? It can be a lot of different things. It can be the IR LED on the remote or the can be the IR receiver which has some issues. It also can be the conducive layer on the rubber which presses down on the remote control.
You won't believe what I did. The signal reached the ir receiver and also the processor, but no further. I heated the processor with a hairdryer to 190 degrees for a minute, reset the receiver and the remote works again
Thank you for your comment. In regards to your amplifier, I would check out the output transistors and the balancing resistance for your not working channels. Regarding your SUB-preamp there could be a bad connection or a non working transistor. But, I thought the amplifier would go in protect if bad or non working transistors.
Hello. As the DSP is a surface mount component, the soldering paste mormally used has a melting point from 180 to 220 degrees Celsius, so at least 180 degrees or up is neede to get heated. If a hair dryer has the heat and energy enough, I really does not know. But I have seen it done with a halogen lamp as heat source.
@@anatticinnorway2883 Hello! Unfortunely, no luck with the hair dryer. Although it did "click" like @ 12:45 but still no sound. Do you know what that could mean ? Should i bother to buy a heat gun and something like soldering flux and a heat sink ?
Dear Sir that is great my Onkyo tx NR 609 has the no sound , I would like to know how many Celsius degrees for that ? Also heating takes around about 40 seconds? Thanks so much for your quick response.
@@vunguyenhaivimeco I got it to work with a heat gun and soldering flux. I put a lot of soldering flux and heat at ~200° Celsius for 20 minutes. Let it cool completely. All good now. I had to try several times though.
I have tried three times now but no sucess, the last to relays do not click when I switch on the power? Any ideas?? Have tried that you do in this video
As I understand if ever there are issues with the pre- or poweramplifier, then the receiver goes directly in to protect mode if attempted to switch on. So as I can see it there are eiter the HDMI card has an issue or one or both the relays has issues. If I should guess, I would guess this DSP is totally blown and need replacements.
Thanks for the answer! I bought a new one today (Sony STR-DH790). The thing is when I switch it on (Onkyo) the picture come up and everything seems fine but not the last to relays wouldn’t do the ”click” so🤷🏼♂️
i have an issue with the left surround speaker onkyo 373 amp.. daughter pulled wire and possibly shorted the output to speaker. no sound from that one speaker only.. everything else works..
I got the tx-nr616, and last month the bass stopped working(no signal from the reciver), then last week the back speakers stopped working. lol. Im sad. but front and center gives sound but verry low. anyone got an idea if its the DTS chip or something else? If its a quick fix or not.
Sorry late reply. This was kinda delicate problem. As I have learned these receivers, if any problem for the amplifiers, it will not even start. But I wonder as you ask if it can be this DTS-chip. These network models has a heat issue for the DTS-chip, but I thought it would not start or even go to protect if not in good shape. I would also check the connection between preamp and power amp, in addition check the bias resistor and the power transistors for the power amp. Good luck in your problem solving.
@@anatticinnorway2883 So I found out that reseting the reciver to fabrication settings gave back the bass, so that works now, but not the backspeakers, they work with all channel stereo. So I guess its time to throw the reciever in the garbage or sell it :P
@@appleorange5019 I am sorry to hear that. Did you try to update the firmware? If not able to switch off after a firmware update then I am afraid the main board could be damaged.
@@anatticinnorway2883 Thanks for your answer, I have a tx-nr3009 model with the already known problem that it doesn't give sound, I bought it second hand and whoever sold it to me told me that it worked fine and suddenly it stopped giving sound and the typical thing is, it does not appear the speaker scheme on the screen, and he ended up using it in multichannel mode, there are technicians who say that when the equipment is already irreparable it can only be used in multichannel mode and there are other technicians who say the opposite and that worries me, what advice do you give me? you can give.
Awesome video. I come across Onkyo components all the time at thrift stores and Goodwills. I will definitely try this!
Super Attic in Norway.....got my Onkyo TX-NR515AE working again thanks to your Video, Cheers
Happy your receiver works again and very happy I could help
Thank you, hot air solved my problem. I bought this receiver for 20 euro yesterday and today working :)
is it still working with this fix? thanks in advance
@@vortexor1 no, just working temporary..then problem comes again..Need to be desoldered and soldered again
I buy the same problem now I have to try to fix! thank you great video
Good luck. I hope you manage to fix.

Thank you for your detailed and advising❤
My Onkyo HT-R391have the same problem (Without sound) - I'll try this!

Wowww sending my support from PEARL CARES abu Dhabi
My receiver TX DS 494 remote works with fresh batterys but can't switch the box on. No clue what's wrong. Can you help me?

@@anatticinnorway2883 thanks, but you didn't read well my question. Remote works 100% . So, what to look at the receiver
You won't believe what I did. The signal reached the ir receiver and also the processor, but no further. I heated the processor with a hairdryer to 190 degrees for a minute, reset the receiver and the remote works again
Hello sir, i have sr313. Problem is no sound on left rear channel. Also pre out subwoofer is not working normal. You have any idea? Thanks btw

HELLO, I have a problem with the onkyo tx-sr605 the remote control does not work, do you know where the IR module is, in the onkyo. Thank you
Hello. The remote control sensor is placed on the left side of the display on the receiver. I hope you manage to fix your remote issues.

What model of heat gun do you use? Thanks
I’m using an air soldering machine. It’s a model 858D
Hello
To what temperature do i need to heat it ?
Could this work with a hairdryer...?

Hello. If a speaker output get shorted while in use, the output transistor will short and stop working. I’m sorry.

I just got TX-NR 929 band new , will be adding heat sinks stat
Good plan. Should have been done from the beginning from the factory.
Enjoy your Receiver :)

My onkyo tx-nr609 cant power off cant function too same hang... How to fix ? Thanks.

What to do if that trick dont do!!??
You can try to replace that DSP with a new one, if you find that part at your local electronics part store.
sir need hdmi card
add a heat sink may help
I have considered a heat sink. That might be added. Thank you for the advice.
that was not funny, you are lucky.
Thank you for your comment.
It’s not luck, if know what looking for.
But as I told the owner that this DSP should be replaced.
