What to do if JVC Receiver display shows flashing “OVERLOAD”?
If “OVERLOAD” starts flashing on the display, it indicates that the speakers are overloaded either due to high volume in Zone 1 or Zone 2, or due to a short circuit in the speaker terminals. First, turn off the receiver by pressing STANDBY/ON on the front panel and stop the playback source. Then, turn the receiver back on and adjust the volume. If the issue persists, turn off the receiver, check the speaker wiring for short circuits. If “OVERLOAD” does not disappear, unplug the AC power cord, then plug it back again. If speaker wiring is not short-circuited, contact your dealer.
