Optical signal strength is sensitive to small-radius bends in the cable.

DON'T LOOK DIRECTLY INTO AN OPTICAL CABLE or PORT.

Fan makes noise and then shuts down

Maybe something'sjammed in it.

Generally speaking, an amp attempts to protect itself from heat, shorts, overloads and operator exuberance by refusing to turn on or stay on.

Overloads can be from excessive periods of high output or marginally low impedance loading by the speakers; 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 and competent hands-on tech.

Check for loose speaker connections at the speaker as a root cause for intermittent shutdown

Try 016, 804 or 571 for the Samsung Audio System. If these don't work, let me know the model of the Universal remote and we can get you a copy of the remote's user guide. Thanks.

How do you tell if the color wheel or the cooling fan is out

That would be the color wheel. They range from $150-$600. That sounds like the whole light engine could have went out. They can be rebuilt for around 750-1000 bucks.

How do I know if the lamp is out or the color wheel

If the lamp is blown out, you will see shards of glass floating around in the bulb. The wires that connect to the glass element in the center will be "disconnected". If the set is less than a year old the bulb is under warranty. All you will have to do is contat the people that sold you the televison and tell them the bulb is blown and do a warranty claim. Good luck!

Disc reading

hi there

long reading time for cds or dvds only means that there might be dust or residues hindering your cd lens to accurately read the data of the cd/dvd. what you can do is try to clean the lens with a cd cleaner.always check the cd/dvd that you insert are clean and fre of dust . if this still wont work and the player still have the long time to read the cd/dvds, my advise is to bring this to a service center and have this checked out.

hope this helps.

Discs aren't playing

The system isn't 'seeing' the disc, probably due to a bad or dirty laser pickup. Try cleaning the 'eye' of the laser with a dry q-tip. You've have to get inside to do it. If this doesn't help, then the laser pickup is gone and will need to be replaced. This is probably the most common problem with CD players.

Hope this helps, and please rate my advice, good OR bad.

Good luck!

Does the DVD player play all DVD disk formats?

The brands all vary as well as the players. I would try different brands until you find some that your player/recorder likes. We use Imations and TDK's. For DVD burning I would definitely stay away from non brands.

Pairing Samsung remote to Yamaha RX-V361

Normally makers don't play ball between each other. Yes if it was a Samsung Television and a Samsung Receiver A/V System. Or if you have something like a Cable Box or Satellite System that is made to interact with other makes. Or if it is a Universal Remote. I think you were just lucky that it happened to use the same frequency. Look in the manual for a scan command. https://www.google.com/search?q=Connect+Samsung+OLED+S90+remote+to+Yamaha+RX-V361+via+optical ..

Is it compatible with other phones apart from the iPod?

You would have to define 'it'. In a question talking about two items, you need to clearly state 'make model (what it is)' for both items. The main item should be the first 3 words in the question. ..
