20 Most Recent Samsung HT-P10 Theater System Questions & Answers

..I would assume that you have carefully cleaned the lense and inspected the flexible ribbon cable..try replacing the spindle motor..in our case they are not expensive..good luck Elben

If this is confirmed then the OPTICAL HEAD must be replaced with the same type. Before this is done you can clean the lens as a last attempt.
Use all precaution when replacing the head, need to remove the static shorting in the new head before replacing. Take help.

Generally speaking, an amp protects itself from heat, shorts and overloads by refusing to turn on or stay on.

Overloads can be from excessive periods of high output and shorts would be wiring issues or a speaker blowing up.

You should be able to feel if it's hot. WHY is it overheating? Make sure it has sufficient ventilation on all sides and that vent holes are not blocked by dust balls. Ensure the fan (if equipped) is running as designed (some only operate on demand). Clean dust and debris from it.

If the amp comes back on after cooling, you're lucky. They only have so many self-protection cycles in their lives so continuously resetting or cycling their power without addressing the cause can do more harm than good.

If it protects immediately on a cool power up you should disconnect the speaker connections and try it 'naked'. If it comes up then diagnose which lead(s) are shorted. If it does not come up the problem is internal and should be left to an experienced hands-on tech.

Check for loose speaker connections as a root cause for intermittent shutdown.
