  If your Yamaha Receiver has no sound or picture, check the following: * Ensure all input and output cables are correctly connected. If the problem continues, the cables may be defective. * Verify that you've selected the correct input source using the INPUT SELECTOR or TAPE/MD MON / EXT. DECODER (or the input selector buttons). * Make sure the speaker connections are secure. * Confirm that SPEAKERS are set to the ON position for the speakers you're using. * Check that the sound isn't muted; adjust the volume and press MUTE to cancel muting if necessary. * If using a CD-ROM, ensure it's playing signals that the unit can reproduce, such as PCM audio or signals encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS.
