Why is my pioneer VSX not switching on?
With the power totally disconnected from the receiver, disconnect all the speaker cables from the receiver, reconnect the power to the receiver, switch on the power outlet (if this is the case where you are) and check if the receiver switches on OK. If it still doesn’t switch on, there is a fault in the receiver itself.

Why is my pioneer VSX 821 K not working?
Used this receiver one day, the next it was dead. There was no power outage or surge. There is no display and not responding to the remote or switch. Checked all the power components and they appear to be okay. Getting power to the unit, but not going through the transformer on the power supply board.
Why does my pioneer SC-27 have no power?
I was given a Pioneer SC-27 receiver last night, it was left behind taking up space in a shop for a few months, and for a very good reason, it has no power, only a standby voltage and a flashing Advanced MCACC light. I did some reading and found this to be due to power outages or speaker shorts.
Why is the mcacc light blinking on my pioneer SC 27?
After a power failure, I discovered that the MCACC light was blinking on my Pioneer SC 27 Receiver. I was worried that one of the circuit boards had been fried, again.

What does a standby light on a pioneer plasma mean?
Pioneer plasma standby lights will blink one of two colours, red and green. Unplug the television from the wall if the light is blinking green. Let the television sit for one minute, replug the television and turn it on. The system will have reset itself and will allow for normal viewing.
