20 Most Recent Yamaha RX-V995 Receiver - Page 4 Questions & Answers

I am not an expert. I had the same problem. In my case, the receiver is too smart when the wires to the speakers were crossed in polarity and thus it would shut it down.

Good Luck.

yes ground the turn tables usally have ground wire u tie on to bolt on back

YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO RUN SOME PHONO LEADS TO THE AMP FROM THE CONECTORS ON THE BACK OF TV THE SOUND CONNECTORS ARE USUALLY WHITE AND RED JUST CONNECT THE CORRESPONDING LEADS TO THE SAME COLOURED CONNECTORS ON THE AMP

It could be a couple of different things.

Do you get any sound, even very faint, if volume is turned up all the way?

If so, you probably have the turntable connected to the wrong type of input or you have the wrong type of turntable for the type of input you have on the receiver.

Older turntables have a very, very low level of audio output which requires an input that has much more gain than the normal type of audio input on a receiver.

Many newer turntables and receivers has the same level phono inputs and outputs as the other inputs and outputs of the receiver like the CD or Tape I/O. When an older turntable with such a low level output is connected to this type of phono input the sound is so low you can only hear it very faintly with the volume all the way up.

If you have the proper type of turntable for the type of input on your receiver, then the problem is most likely in the turntable. To check if it is or not, disconnect the turntable from the receiver, and then connect an RCA cable to the receivers phono input with nothing connected to the other end. Then with the volume turned up just about 1/4 to 1/2 the way up, touch the ends of the male ends of the RCA cable that are not connected to anything with your finger lightly tapping it a few times. You should be able to hear the tapping sound real easy in the speakers. If you hear that noise you know that the receiver is OK. If you don't hear anything the receiver has a pre-amp problem or the receiver is not set to the proper function.

If you determain the receiver is working normal, you have a problem in the turntable. Most times it is the stylus or the wires connected to the cartridge which holds the stylus.

Another thing to check is that if your turntable has a ground wire coming off the back of it near the RCA outputs of it, make sure that it is connected to the chassis of the receiver. Most receivers have a ground terminal right on the back that you can loosen with your fingers and then put the ground wire from the turntable in there and tighten it hand tight. If it has no ground terminal on the receiver you can always just loosen a screw on the back and connect it there. Make sure the ground wire has the insulation cut back to expose the bare metal, that insures that you have continuity from the ground of the turntable to the ground of the receiver.

If your turntable has no ground wire, then you have a newer turntable type that would be able to plug into any of the audio inputs on the back of the receiver. It would be a turntable with a boosted signal that can only be connected to an input with the same level as the CD or Tape input.

I hope this helps you to figure out what your problem is, if you need more help don't hesitate to reply to this post. I will get back to you as soon as I am able.

If this was helpful for you a "FixYa!" rating would be appropriate and very much appreciated, after all, it is the only reward we get for helping people like yourself for free.

1. Try twisting the RCA plugs from CD player and see if they are not connecting right.
2. Replace the cable from the Cd player to the receiver
3. Try a different input
4. Try a different CD player

See if any of those solve your issue. Replacing the cable worked for me one time

The part was $8 plus shipping to new york was $11

The solution is to replace the main power relay. I ordered a replacement relay from Vance Baldwin Electronics - part RELAY DC DG12D1-0/M11 RXV2095 (V6881300). After installing the relay this morning, my receiver now stays on continuously like it is supposed to. You can easily fix this yourself in about an hour. All you need is a screwdriver, a soldering iron, and some solder.

Had same problem. A and B speakers are basically connected together, and there is no way to get the same volume out of each speaker. This is not a multi-source receiver like Onkyo. Zone 2 needs to go to a seperate amplifier and select teh correct source on the fornt,

a b switch? is pretty common. other speakers work?

try using the analog mine had a problem with the dac. have any questions email me at [email protected]

I expect there is either a power supply issue or one of the amplifiers has failed causing over current to turn it off as a protection to the power supply.

"Opening" ... Please explain what you mean.

Yes if it has a suitable speaker connection available and is nominally 8 ohms impedance Speaker and AV.

Being from 1985 or there abouts, it probably needs some TLC at a Yamaha service centre. May need new capacitors and resolder dry joints for age related issues.

WD-40 ... Very dangerous as it not only flammable when wet but is bad for electrical contacts as it leaves a residue behind that does not conduct electricity very well. Check speaker connections first.

(francais) hello in my issue the probleme was a little resistor r027 it's in this red zone and very ugly. easy to find. a friend was unsolded the resistor and weld a little wire after wash with isopropanole alcool. the resistor test the tension when we plug usb thing. less the resistor the usb ports don't work. you can buy r027 for 2 euros for 100 pieces.... or 2 euros for 5 10 pieces (funny).

Follow the procedure as given in following link. RX-V6A ' ENJOYING IN MULTIPLE ROOMS (ZONES) (yamaha.com)

Question edited for clarity, full make model (what it is)'. Question moved to Yamaha Audio. It may be sympathetic vibration and is coming from something nearby. Put it on a folded towel or sit in the floor to test it. https://www.google.com/search?q=YST-FSW050+bad+vibration ..

You must repair the amplifier first. Take it to an authorised Yamaha service centre.
