Yamaha RX V457 Amplifier No Power Repair

#yamaha #amplifier #repair
I was given a Yamaha RX-V457 and I repair it... it had more than one fault.
I fail to mention it in the video, but these are an excellent amplifier, even if you are just using a single input into stereo speakers like I am.
I am not recommending buying faulty amplifiers on eBay, but if you are an electronic technician or hobbyist, you could end up with a bargain!

This is very useful for repair, thanks

[@jennifersterett1191]

My Yamaha receiver power button won’t even toggle - it’s frozen/stuck. It doesn’t turn on via remote control either. Could it be the same problem?

[@FixTechStuff]

It’s very possible. I’ve done this twice so far.

[@jennifersterett1191]

@@FixTechStuff Ok, I'll replace the internal power switch & hope that does the job. All the capacitors appear to be fine. Thanks!

hi i changed the capasitor, still has the same problem

[@FixTechStuff]

You might need to do a bit of googling, it's what I actually did years ago on the first one of these I repaired, those things don't normally fail, but on these amps they do for some reason. Keep in mind the cap may have a different value in different countries. I am in Australia and this amp is a 240 volt version.

kindly tell me the solution i have yamaha Rx v861 Master audio with HDMI when i play dvd player with HDMI suddenly avr off avr not on till now

[@FixTechStuff]

I'm not sure about that one, other than the 2 faults I have another which died in a bad way. I'm beginning to hate the complexity surrounding their particular soft power circuitry. Search more on Google and you may find something.

[@simontravels9379]

What cap in the circuit are you replacing? How come the faulty cap make it no power?

[@FixTechStuff]

C405, it's a 22nf metalized polypropylene film capacitor. I think it's a mains filter, I guess its a vital component and the power supply must have protection. It's the most common fault across most similar Yamaha amps.

@@FixTechStuff Thanks for the information. It is worthy reading. Looks like there is a switching power supply? Unfortunately I don't have the schematic. Thanks again.

[@efrengranviel3720]

It was the same value cap , it comes on i see the radio stations and lights and then hear a click and it goes of. Iam at work now. I will take a picture of the new one or give you the details. I never did amy repairs on nothing so iam a novice in all this.

I cant find C405 capacitor im web. Is it 22nF 630V?

[@FixTechStuff]

From memory yes. 400V would also do. This one here I think. ebay.us/Ie8bvZ

[@FixTechStuff]

I just went and checked my 2nd amp with the same cap and confirmed it’s 630v. 223J630V

hey hello there, i am suing yamaha rx v695 it is going to protection mode, afrer going into DIAG mode i see error " tmp prt 172" which is a thermal sensor faulty error, i am not able t locate where this sensor is, since you own somilar model, please let me know where these sensor is located, i will repair on my own. :)

[@FixTechStuff]

I'm not familiar with that fault code. A google search did turn up some results, so perhaps you might be lucky. I've got a different Yamaha repair coming up soon, I accidentally bumped the impedance switch while unplugging my amp to do a volume pot repair and bad things happened!

[@rodionpavlenko4680]

hello. is the pitch 15mm?

[@FixTechStuff]

Between the capacitor pins? I believe so yes.

[@rodionpavlenko4680]

@@FixTechStuff yes, thank you
