Default Yamaha receiver makes clicking sound on standby


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?


Disconnect the speakers. If the clicking continues, the receiver needs
repair. If the clicking stops. Check for short circuits in the speaker
wire -- bare wire should not be able to touch ANYTHING except the
proper speaker wire terminal.
