Hi:
Do you know what to do about this? My Sony STR-DA50ES receiver, bought in Feb 1999, stops all sound and flashes something like PROTECTOR (FAN).
I opened the case, turned the receiver off and on and the fan wasn't running but the blades rotated easily. I disconnected the internal fan wire, and temporarily blew a room fan directly into it. It stayed on longer, but then the same thing happened.
If it's just a matter of installing a new fan, I can do that myself, but if it's more than that, should I scrap it? Thanks,
John
