I have a Panasonic SA-HT940 Home Theater in a Box. Recently, whenever I have the volume above a certain level, the player shuts off and displays the error message "F61". Not only can I not turn the player up loud enough to clearly hear dialogue on some discs, but whenever a sudden loud noise occurs (like a gunshot or an explosion) the error pops up again. This appears to be a common problem among this model of player. Panasonic has been absolutely no help, due to the warranty has expired (they directed me to an "authorized service center 2 hours away). What can I do to fix this myself?
