YES, I have changed the batteries, with known good ones from another remote as well as new ones.....Just wanted to get that out there early in this thread. I hope this is not a repeat thread, I have spent a lot of time reading through this website. I am not a GURU, in any shape or form, but i am not totally lost either.
I have a YHT-18 Home Theater set w/ SW-201 Sub, NS-AP 280 speakers and a HTR-5440 amp/tuner/receiver. I have had it for about 5 years and it may be time to change, but if it ain't broke, don'e fix it! Ths system works great after a few adjustments and fine tuning
I can not figure this out....the remote will not work on any piece of equipment. Here's the kicker, it will not even let me reset the factory settings on any A/V piece. I hit the select button, hold the up/down volume buttons and it will blink twice like the book says and then when I eneter ANY code it will blink twice again as if it is accepting the code and it will not work, regardless if it is an actual option or not. I have even tried to reset each piece of equipment back to either "9990" or "0000" and it acts as if it taking to code, but then nothing works
NEXT......When it try to reset the remote back to factory setting on the amp/tuner, as soon as I select it, hold down the up/down volume buttons it blinks 6 times and will not accept any codes for the amp/tuner. It acts like it does not recognize anything I am trying to do.
Is there a master reset of that tuner? I can't find it and there is nothing in the book that would lead me to believe there is either.
I need the remote to set up my output to my rear channel speakers after a recent move, I have quite a bit of background hiss on my rear speakers and they need adjusted to limit that as much as possible.
Sorry for the rather long thread, but this is driving me crazy! Thanks for the help!
