Distortion with a good FM antenna on your Yamaha Receiver may be due to multi-path interference. Adjust the antenna position to eliminate it.
How to troubleshoot no sound on a Yamaha RX-V363 Receiver?
If you are experiencing no sound from your Yamaha Receiver, verify that all input and output cables are correctly connected; if the problem continues, the cables may be defective. Ensure that you have selected an appropriate Audio input jack and input source using the front panel or the remote control. Confirm the correct front speakers are selected using the 'SPEAKERS' setting. Also, check that the volume isn't turned down or muted; adjust the volume and unmute if necessary. Finally, ensure that the input source signals can be reproduced by the unit and that the settings of connected components are correct.
What to do if the sound suddenly goes off on a Yamaha Receiver?
If the sound suddenly goes off on your Yamaha Receiver, it could be due to the protection circuitry being activated by a short circuit. Check that the speaker wires are not touching each other and then turn the unit back on. Alternatively, the sleep timer may have turned off the unit; turn the unit back on and play the source again.
Why is my Yamaha RX-V363 Receiver remote control not working?
If your Yamaha Receiver remote control isn't working, ensure you're within a 6 m (20 ft) range and no more than 30 degrees off-axis from the front panel. Also, make sure direct sunlight or lighting isn't interfering with the remote control sensor; reposition the unit if necessary.
Why is FM stereo reception noisy on my Yamaha RX-V363 Receiver?
Noisy FM stereo reception on your Yamaha Receiver could be due to the transmitter being too far away or poor antenna input. Check the antenna connections.
Why can't previously preset stations be tuned into on my Yamaha Receiver?
If previously preset stations can no longer be tuned into on your Yamaha Receiver, it may be because the unit has been disconnected for a long period. Set preset stations again.
Why can't I increase the volume or the sound is distorted on my Yamaha RX-V363 Receiver?
If you can't increase the volume level or the sound is distorted on your Yamaha Receiver, check if the component connected to the AUDIO OUT (REC) jacks is turned off and turn it on. Also, you might be trying to exceed the maximum volume level, so adjust the 'MAX VOL.' setting.
What to do if my Yamaha Receiver does not operate properly?
If your Yamaha Receiver is not operating properly, the internal microcomputer may have frozen due to an external electric shock or a power supply with low voltage. Disconnect the power cable from the AC wall outlet and plug it back in after about 30 seconds.
Why is there no sound from the subwoofer on my Yamaha RX-V363?
If you're not hearing sound from the subwoofer on your Yamaha Receiver, and you're playing a Dolby Digital or DTS signal, check that 'BASS OUT' in 'SPEAKER SET' isn't set to 'FRNT'. If it is, set 'BASS OUT' to 'SWFR' or 'FRNT' when playing a 2-channel source.
Why is there sound from only one speaker on my Yamaha Receiver?
If you're only hearing sound from one speaker on your Yamaha Receiver, or if only the center speaker outputs substantial sound, check the cable connections to ensure they are properly connected. If the problem persists, the cables may be defective. Also, verify the 'SP LEVEL' settings and adjust them as needed. If playing a monaural source with a CINEMA DSP program, the source signal is directed to the center channel, with the front and surround speakers outputting effect sounds.
