20 Most Recent Pioneer VSX-1014 Receiver Questions & Answers

Use the speaker output and plug it into the mic socket. Not ideal but the alternative is to buy a cheap adaptor for the end of the aux cable so that you can plug your speaker output into the aux input.

Try pressing the ENTER + VIDEO2 buttons on the front panel of the unit for 2 seconds. The unit should then come back to life and MCACC should go off.

IOW, no audio from anywhere.

If it otherwise looks alive...

WARNING: Never use maximum volume for troubleshooting. The errant switch or control that you eventually find and flip will suddenly release the amp's full power and you'll destroy your speakers. If a signal isn't audible at 1/2 volume it's probably not there. Look for a misplaced Mute or Tape Monitor control or Multichannel Analog Input selected.

There is a good chance that a common control may have developed a high-resistance or 'dead' spot through idleness and is causing your symptom. Turn the POWER OFF and operate every control throughout its range a number of times, especially rarely-used ones like Tape Monitors and the Mute control.

Turn the volume to something reasonable and see if that helped.

ENTER VIDEO2 keys for 2 seconds.

Yes, and it's quite easy. You need to locate on your receiver's front panel two buttons, labelled ENTER and VIDEO2 When the you press these two buttons together for a couple of seconds, the receiver should wake up. Please come back with a testimonial if helped :)

Replace the power supply.

Check the balance control. Apart from that the unit will have to be checked internally to ascertain where the signal is breaking down. This will require some skill and some equipment. My guess is it will be a dry solder joint or a dried out capacitor. If a capacitor looks 'leaky' or swollen, it is a good bet it is outside its tolerance and should be replaced. Sorry couldn't be any better help. Good luck.

You can't!Change the batteries in the remote and look at the front of the remote using the front facing selfie camera on a smartphone. Press the power button and see if you see a red or blue flash.
