Sony 5.1 A/V receiver model:STR-DE345,year:Jan 2000.No power only relay click I found F901=3 amp fuse to be open when I connected a 100 watt bulb inplace of F901 and pressed power button the light bulb lit bright and still no display. I tested most components with my Fluke DMM series II model 29 and they tested ok,like the five 0.22 ohm dual emitter resistors and since they were ok obviously the five output pairs of MP1620 & MN2488 were fine but I still tested them. I could not test IC501=STK350-230 as I would have to tear the whole thing apart to get to the trace side of the main board to take measurements. I could not find any Sony common repair tips at:
then click on "TSS logs for Sony".
