Questions and answers
Listening to music and the power turned off and now a red hdmi light is flashing power does not turn on
The red HDMI light on the Pioneer HTP-074 flashes because the receiver is undergoing an HDMI initialization process, which takes 2 to 10 seconds after being connected to an AC outlet. During this time, no operations can be performed. Once the HDMI indicator stops blinking, you can turn the receiver back on. If you want to skip this process, set ARC to OFF in the HDMI setup menu.

Listening to music system turned off red light flashing HDMI power does not turn on now
The Pioneer HTP-074 may not be turning on and showing a flashing red light due to overheating. The manual indicates that if the unit's internal temperature exceeds the allowable limit, it may shut down or display a warning. Try improving ventilation around the unit and reducing the volume level. If the issue persists, disconnect the power plug, wait a few minutes, then reconnect it to reset the system.

My Pioneer AV receiver vsx-325 shut down after listening to music at a high volume the red HDMI light is flashing won't turn on I unplugged it for a day now I plugged it back in lights still flashing on and off
A flashing red HDMI light on the Pioneer AV receiver VSX-325, combined with the unit not turning on after shutting down at high volume, likely indicates that the receiver has entered a protection mode due to overheating or a power issue. To resolve this:
1. Unplug the receiver from the power outlet and let it cool down for at least 30 minutes.
2. Inspect the ventilation around the receiver to ensure it is not blocked.
3. Check the speaker connections for any short circuits or damaged wires.
4. Examine the power cord for damage and replace it if necessary.
5. Reconnect and power on the receiver to see if it resumes normal operation.
If the issue persists, contact a Pioneer authorized service center for further diagnosis.
