No Video signal from Yamaha RX V457?

Question

I cannot get any video input signal using the Video Coax (RCA) on this receiver. I have tried all including all the Aux In on the front. Audio works fine but Video has no picture (Yellow RCA). Is it possible there is an internal fault with the unit?

Answer 1

I certainly wonder if the cable you have connected to the MON OUT could be bad...normally you should at least be able to access your Amplifier MENU to verify the  TV to Mon Out is actually working correctly...then you at least know the amp's output and the TV and the Cable between the two is good....

If you don't get your menu, try another cable, and if that fixes it, then try the inputs again....If the menu works but the inputs don't , then your problem is the VIDEO switch or the Video pre-amp....

And if you can't get the menu, then your Mon Out amp is bad....

All should be reasonably priced and easy to repair....

But don't think it's a $20 repair, more than likely it's going to be a $120 repair.....
