My Yamaha receiver HTR 5730 was lying dormant (and unplugged) for a
month while I was away. When I came back and powered it on, pressing
the standby/on button makes the receiver do a clicking/ticking sound
and it does not turn on.

I tried searching for this phenomena, but couldnt find any help
online. Can anyone suggest something?

This is not a normal type failure. Tell me more about the clicking. How
fast? Once per second? Machine-gun clicking?

Are you a technician, or do you have some technical qualifications? If not,
troubleshooting this will be beyond your capability (no offense intended).
