'''WARNING! This guide involves working with high voltage equipment! I '''WILL NOT''' be responsible for injury or death if you do something stupid! If you are in doubt, have the unit fixed professionally.''' | '''Professional use: This fix is not recommended for professional use. This is because the unit will likely fail again and come back. Because of this it is recommended you replace the control board itself rather then use this guide to do the repair professionally.''' | Did your Pioneer VSX-918 series receiver have this issue out of the blue, and are wondering what you can do to repair the unit and get it back in service? This guide will show you a way to quickly repair the problem if you need to quickly repair the issue and can't wait on new parts. | The primary problem with this method is longevity. There is no way to predict if the problem will come back, or when it will come back. This can fix the problem for the remainder of the receiver's life, long enough to get a new board or for a short amount of time before you have the problem come back. It may not even fix the problem at all. |
