What to do if my Yamaha YAS-201 Speaker System sound bar cannot be controlled using the remote control?
If the sound bar isn't responding to the remote, make sure you are within the operating range. Weak batteries can also be the cause, so try replacing them. Direct sunlight or strong lighting on the remote control sensor of the sound bar might interfere with the signal; adjust the lighting or reposition the sound bar.
What to do if my Yamaha Speaker System sound bar is not reacting?
If the sound bar isn't responding, the internal microcomputer might be frozen. This can happen due to an external electric shock or a drop in the power supply voltage. To fix this, hold down the power button on the front panel of the sound bar for more than 10 seconds to reboot it. If the problem persists, disconnect the power cable from the AC wall outlet and plug it back in.
Why is there no sound coming from my Yamaha YAS-201?
There might be several reasons for the lack of sound. The volume could be set too low, so try turning it up. The mute function might be activated; if so, cancel it. Also, ensure that you have selected the appropriate input source.
How to fix the issue of no sound coming from the subwoofer of my Yamaha Speaker System?
If the subwoofer isn't producing sound, first check if the subwoofer volume is turned up. Also, a wireless connection between the sound bar and subwoofer may not be established. In that case, adjust the position of the subwoofer and move any devices using a 2.4-GHz band range (like microwave ovens, cordless phones, and Wi-Fi devices) away from the sound bar and subwoofer. If the LINK indicator on the subwoofer does not light up while the SUBWOOFER indicator on the front panel of the sound bar lights up, hold down INPUT on the front panel of the sound bar until the TV indicator starts flashing to match the group IDs of the sound bar and subwoofer. Alternatively, change the group ID.
Why is there no surround effect on my Yamaha YAS-201 Speaker System?
If you're not getting a surround sound effect, check if stereo playback is selected and switch to surround playback. Also, ensure the volume isn't too low. The TV or playback device might be set to output only 2-channel audio (like PCM); if so, change the digital audio output setting on the TV or playback device.
What to do if the power turns off immediately on my Yamaha YAS-201?
The internal microcomputer might be frozen due to an external electric shock or a drop in the power supply voltage. Try holding down the power button on the front panel of the sound bar for more than 10 seconds to reboot it. If the problem continues, disconnect the power cable from the AC wall outlet and plug it back in. If one of the front panel indicators [TV, BD/DVD or YIT] flashes until the power turns off, the protection circuitry has been activated, contact the nearest authorized Yamaha dealer or service center.
Why does the volume decrease when my Yamaha Speaker System sound bar is turned on?
The automatic volume adjustment function may be the cause. To prevent excessive loudness, the sound bar automatically controls its volume within a certain level when turned on. If necessary, turn up the volume.
Why is noise heard from my Yamaha YAS-201?
If you're hearing noise, the sound bar may be too close to another digital or high-frequency device. Move those devices away from the sound bar.
How to fix the issue when my Yamaha Speaker System sound bar operates by itself?
If the sound bar is operating on its own, another Yamaha yAired-compatible product might be in use nearby. Try changing the group ID.
What to do if TV's 3D glasses do not work with Yamaha Speaker System?
If your TV's 3D glasses aren't working, the sound bar might be blocking the 3D glasses transmitter on your TV. Check the position of the 3D glasses transmitter and adjust the position of the sound bar. If needed, remove the stands of the sound bar.
