I suppose pcm light means that the pcm mode is turned on (pcm meaning pulse code modulation), in other words, the unit was switched to digital signal, so if the digital rca or optical TV input on your reciever is not connected to anything, then you're not getting any signal into the reciever in digital mode. You probably just need to switch the unit back to analog mode (see if there is a button that says something like digital/analog, pcm/analog, optical/coax or similar, try pressing it, see if there is any change).

I might just be totally wrong on this, however, probably the best way to learn what happened is to read the user manual if you do have it (see what the pcm light signals for and check any chapters inside the manual related to that topic).

good luck

Pcmcia is flashing and no sound out of our receiver

Check page 31 of the manual regarding PCM versus theDTS settings. Choose AUTO surround mode and that might do the trick. Page 29

If the source is external, make sure it is sedning the desired digital audio format - PCM, Dolby Digital, DTS, etc.

SR5004 amp on standby mode (red light blinking twice a second) / cant get it out of stand by mode

I am having the same issue as well. If you press "clear" "exit" and "surround mode" all at the same time, it will come back on. It seems to be an overheating issue. If you put a fan on it, it helps, but does not fix permanently. Anyone have any ideas for a permanent fix?

I have a marantz sr5001 and it displays check dsp rom and some times it wont power back up after standby. can any one tell me what it is

On the Marantz SR5001 if you get the "CHECK DSP ROM" it can be fixed by holding down the Multi and ATT buttons at the same time for 3 seconds. This will default any setting so be sure to know the correct input setting for your setup.
