Introduction

Why the VSX49TX?

The VSX49TX is not current product, however it
tends to be the most difficult to repair!

5.
The receiver in general; more specifically…
DSP circuitry
Display & System Micro
Amplifier and Protection circuit.
Power Supply
Trouble Shooting Tips

This seminar will be specifically
about troubleshooting techniques,
no operation instructions,
no theory!
4
What will you get out of this?


You will learn the most successful
troubleshooting methods designed to get the
unit on and off your bench as quickly as
possible.
You will learn more accurate repair techniques
and avoid having to replace costly boards on
out-of-warranty units. Replacing expensive
boards can sometimes mean the difference
between getting the repair or having the
customer walk!
5
Bright Idea

break for minimum of 10 minutes every
other hour of training!
6
Topics we will cover
Minor disassembly
 DSP circuitry
 Amplifier & Protection circuits
 System Microprocessor
 Display Microprocessor
 Power Supply
 Additional resources

Disassembly
• Remove no more than you have to!
• Use caution when removing the back
panel screws. They are different !
You are using your ESD wrist strap aren’t you?
Sorry folks. ESD precautions are a fact of life!
Why do your work over and over again due to
8
static damaged components!
To start…
1. Place unit as pictured and remove top, bottom and side covers.
2. Prop up unit as pictured for easy access.
3. Remove all screws holding the DSP boards, as well as any
attached connectors or wire ties.
9
Remove only the screws necessary as shown below.
Why spend more time than you have to?
10
Use caution when removing screws.
There are 3 different types !
11
Keep track of the screw types.
Correct place for screw with
integral flat and attached
star washer.
12
With the screws removed, gently pull back on the back
panel, while extracting the DSP and DSP3 assemblies.

Setup
DVD Digital Input either Coaxial or Optical
 Speaker setup 5.1 or 5 channel(without
Subwoofer)
 Must use DVD with Surround information
{Be sure to look at front panel display}
 For the purpose of this seminar, we will
follow the left surround channel only.

Indicators must illuminate
for all channels driven.
No illumination, no audio!

For your reference only
Depending on the accuracy of your scope, this voltage,
5 volts (TTL level), may vary by + or - .5 volts.

Question…
How do I troubleshoot the DSP2 IC?
It’s located directly under the DSP3 ASSY.
Answer..
Simply remove the DSP3 ASSY.
There won’t be any sound output
from the unit, but you can scope the
digital waveform none the less!
DSP2 IC is under here.

Conclusion to DSP troubleshooting
1. Follow the digital signal into and out of
DSP1, DSP2 and DSP3 ICs. Compare to
waveforms seen in this presentation.
2. Look at the digital signal entering DAC10
ASSY. Look for analog signal to follow.
3. Loss of signal at any point requires back
tracking to last good test point.

DSP socket issues
IC304 on DSP ASSY and IC504 on DSP3 ASSY
Cold solder connections on these sockets can cause loss
of audio in DSP mode. For complete loss of audio, at
times associated with these sockets, try resoldering
socket to PCB first. At the same time, clean and coat
pins of socket and IC with DeOxit, or similar
compound. If this doesn’t resolve the problem, remove
the IC socket and solder the IC directly to the board.
56
DSP troubleshooting tips
Complete loss of audio
Step 1. Use Multi-Channel input jacks at rear.
Step 2. Switch unit to Multi-Channel.
Step 3. If audio returns, unit has a DSP ASSY problem. If still no
audio, remove DSP ASSY board and repeat steps 1 and 2.
If audio returns, probable cause…DSP ASSY.
Step 4. If unit still has no audio, probable cause is VR & PRE OUT
ASSY and beyond.
Step 5. To further isolate the problem, remove Main in/ Preout
jumpers and insert audio directly into Main in, front
channel. If still no audio, unit has amplifier problem.
Don’t forget to reinsert jumpers!
57
Easy tips for troubleshooting audio
Loss of Analog audio
Insert audio(Signal Injector), or noise(put finger on
Test Point to generate noise), to ensure continuation
of signal past that point. Move forward or backward
in the circuit as needed.
Noise on Analog audio channel
Use capacitor, or just short(if there is no DC voltage
present) Test Point to ground at any point to silence
the noise. From that point and beyond, the circuit is
OK. Move forward or backwards in the circuit as
needed.
Please use caution and exercise good judgment!

Problem
Unit shuts off…
Display reads “AMP ERROR”
Probable cause…Damaged amplifier
components.
62
Can there be other causes?
YES!
How do I know if the amplifier
is damaged for certain?
63
How to check for DC Offset
CN5819
DC Detection, Pin 15. Should be
low(0V + - .5V)in normal operation. A
high(5V + - .5V) denotes DC Offset
64
and probable Amplifier damage.
What if DC Offset is detected?
How do I know which of
the 7.1 channel(s) is bad?
65
Test points to narrow choices for
DC Offset
Please note: DC Offset at these Test points can only be measured when
the Power Supply voltages are up to spec.
66
What if the voltage is within spec?
Check these transistors for all channels.
Possibly shorted!
67
None of those other parts bad?
Last place to look!

Amplifier
70
Amplifier Failures
1. Voltage Amp
Bad Voltage Amp IC.
If after replacing damaged
IC(s), the amplifier(s) still
shows DC Offset, one or
both of these resistor(s)
may be open!
71
Amplifier Failures
1. Amplifier output
Number 1 cause
Always replace in
pairs.
Don’t assume this is
the only damage!
72
Amplifier Failures
2. Amplifier output
If amplifier continues to
have DC Offset after
replacing output F.E.T.s,
be sure to check these .1
Ohm resisters

System Microprocessor
Basics
75
Standby Voltage On/Off
RYCTRL= Relay Control
Don’t become confused! This
output line controls the operation
of the standby 5.6 V line, not the AC
relays.
76
Energizing AC Relays
If no DC Offset is present, Pins 58 and 60 will change state to control Port
Expander IC.
PIN 60 EXPOE2
Change of state enables
Expander IC 1103 to allow
data input.
PIN 58 EXPDT2
Data output to Expander
IC1103 to control AC1 and
AC2 lines for AC relays.
77
Turn on signal for AC relays from Micro
RAC1 & RAC2
To turn on AC Relays
Tip…Look for change of state

78
Mute…Main and Multi-Room
Pin 67 changes state to mute
audio lines supplying MULTI-ROOM
Outputs.
Pin 66 changes state to mute all
audio lines to MAIN amplifiers.

Things to keep
in mind
First and foremost, don’t overlook
the obvious!
This is a very complex receiver.
There are 16 fuses, A.K.A. IC Protectors,
11 regulator ICs and countless fusible
resistors! There are published Tips
related to nothing but blown fuses!
89
To aid in Troubleshooting
First be sure the unit is not drawing more than 1.65 amps at 120 volts!
Placing a short
across C1002 will
allow the unit to be
run up slowly
on a Variac.
90
Normal Condition
Unit at idle, no input, no load
(Note: 2.5 amp scale)
1.65 amp + or – 10%
91
Note to current draw…
Normal current draw after
settling, 1.65 amps.
Note: The unit will draw in excess of 7.5 amps as you run up
the AC voltage. Look for the current to drop as soon as you stop
increasing the voltage. If it doesn’t, pull the plug! The unit is shorted!

One brief note on ESD
Located on our PioneerElectronics.com
website under training…
5S ESD Training
The importance of ESD safe practice
and preparation is vital to our mutual
success. It’s no longer business as
usual in the Digital Environment.
Precautions must be taken or damage
WILL occur…
Why spend additional time and money on ESD blown parts!
115
Make sure you have the basics!
