A big thanks to Boppin, who got my 7.1 surround sound receiver working again.
“What’s the make and model?” he asked.
I squinted and shone a light with my phone.
“Denon AVR-1910,” I emailed back.
He responded with two possible solutions. One of which was simple: a reset back to factory settings.
I asked what good that would do? I was sure it wasn’t a settings issue. Bop said that sometimes these things go into a “protected mode” after a power surge. OK, that’s reasonable.
After returning home, I did a factory reset, and reconnected everything. (I also replaced the cables in the troubleshooting process.)
Suddenly, everything came back to life! Audio, video – all working again.
THANK YOU BOP FOR SAVING ME A LOT OF MONEY!

The solution reminds me of how I fixed my cell phone. I told my friend I couldn’t make outgoing calls, but I could receive them. He said press hard on the reset button and then select the option POWER DOWN. Then restart/reboot the cell phone. The little fucker worked fine after that.

Wow, that’s awesome! I honestly did not think this would work, but it did…I’m glad your phone was fixed just as easily!

That is great to hear. That was going to be an expensive fix. Glad it was such an easy fix.
