Hi,
I've been lurking in these forums for a long time but never posted so hope someone can help or advise me.
I bought an Pioneer VSX-933 from Richer sounds back in Nov 2018 but a few months ago it suddenly stopped turning on. They advised that it unfortunately was no longer under warranty and would need to charge to look at it and it would take a while. They then suggested it may be better for me to find someone local to me to take a look.
Having scanned forums I have tried all the various reset options to see if it was related but seems completely dead. I have since taken the cover off to see if there was anything obviously blown or otherwise but everything seems fine. A quick volt-meter reading confirms that power is flowing in nicely, and 12v out the black ribbon.
So my first question is this. There is a small power board (see pic) - is this something which fails and can be replaced or are these issues normally more complex (i expect i know the answer!) - and any guidance if its something worth exploring further with some but basic electronics skills!
-
related question then is, does anyone know someone they can recommend to repair near Chippenham, Wiltshire?
Thanks,
Brian
