Denon DAR-395 sparks

One fuse blown. When replaced and powered up sparks come from connection on flat side of aluminum heat sink. Other lights function but not main readout.

You most likely have shorted output transistors. This will cause the fuse to blow, and usually burns up a couple resistors as well.

    thanks for the comment. I am handy but not with solder or electronics guts. Is this something worth getting fixed? I don't think I can do this one myself.

  • Steve K Apr 24, 2013

    You can probably expect to pay around $150-200 to repair it. Might be better off finding something new.

    Thanks for the information Steve. Too bad the fuse doesn't protect the rest of the damage.

It sounds like there is a problem with the differential circuit. The bias I am not sure about, as every unit is different. You should get the service manual to be sure or call Denon and see if they can give you an idea. Good Luck

I can help you solve this problem. However you must describe to me which fuse you have replaced. Is it the fuse on the power line or is it a fuse in the speaker line (which I highly doubt). usually this type of amplifier uses two technologies. One is transistors the second is integrated chips. This is in regard to the output stages. I assumed you speaker cables shorted each other while the volume was set at a high level with music playing. Anyway if you are willing I am able to help.

More than likely the protector circuit is getting activated... You can't go below 6 ohms on the surround back which means you need 12 ohm or higher speakers for outside (since the two outputs for surround back/zone2 are in parallel). As a simple diagnostic test, disconnect one speaker and see if the sound survives longer than 2 seconds.

Why does t4al fuse keep blowing?

Fuses blow when there is an overload. The most common cause is a short-circuited semi-conductor device. Frequently found on the large heat sink of the power amp section of the unit. Very often this will have blown due to bad speaker wires. With the two wires touching each other more often than not. Or simply connecting the wrong type of speakers to it.

My plasma has sound but no picture,and green light flashes 8 times

Hello,

Problem is in either power supply or the Y-Sustain board.

The Y-Sustain is a relatively large board out of which go connections to the side of the display; it's therefore closer to either the left or the right side of the display, has at least one rather large heat sink on it and fat power cables connecting it to the main power supply.

Often there are fuses on that board - one or more. Check those.

if they are blown you can try to replace them, but expect them to blow again - usually the whole board needs to be replaced.

I hope this will help in solving the problem....

often that *needs* to be done in a service center as there are some adjustments to be made after replacement; don't know about this particular TV model, but it's a common thing for the flat panel TV.
Hope this helpout....

Denon DRA 395 flashing red power light

Needs to be reset or fuse blown. Take to repair shop, cover has to be taken off and fuse replaced. You could fix it yourself but the warranty won't be honored. Do it yourself electronic shop should have a replacement fuse, may have to be soldered in place. Repair shop, should cost around $30.00 to $45.00 to fix, price of fuse $4.00 to $6.00. Your choice.
