Well just when I thought everything was fixed...You mean nylon stand offs?
The receiver had worked flawlessly for over 3 weeks.
Then suddenly today the radio went dead again.
I took it apart and this time reheated one of the solder
joints on the questionable transistor (d313e).
Anyway everything is back together and working.
Hopefully this will permanently fix the problem.
The plastic tabs that hold the board in place are disintegrating.
Anybody know where I can get similar tabs?
Thnaks.

I have left the case open, and have the thing sitting on a shelf
vertically.
It worked flawlessly for about 3 days, then spontaneouslt theradio
went dead again.
I ever so gently tapped the heatsink that this transistor is on, and
once
again everything is fine. I have not lifted the board yet to look at
the solder
underneath. However I'm beginning to think that it is the transistor
itself
that is the problem. Can I find the exact replacement atradioshack?
If I'm going to lift the board, I'm thinking it's probably makes sense
to replace the
device.
Thanks

I strongly suggest you find and fix the cold solder connection that
caused the fault. Or if the transistor is intermittant, replace it.

OK I took the thing apart and sure enough, there was a sanyo 313E
mounted on a V shaped piece of metal(heatsink?). When I tapped
gently on the metal, everything now works fine.
The small board in question is AWR-011A, which according
to the schematic is the power supply unit.
I would think that if this was the roblem it would effect
everything, not just theradio.
Anyway I will run it for awhile with the case open,
and see if the problem recurs.

Sounds like something is intermittent in theradiosection (assumes
amplifier/auxiliary input/tape/etc. all are still working fine). I'd
start
by looking for cold/broken solder connections under a magnifying. Or
alternatively, if that does not work and you can get at the board
safely
while the unit is powered up, you can try pushing at various points
with a
wooden dowel or similar non-conductive item. This may help you isolate
the
area to take a closer look.
If these do not help, then you'll either need a schematic, a volt
meter,
scope, and some troubleshooting skills to check the power supply
voltages at
key points and then follow the signal through theradiosection or
take it
to someone to do the work for you.

I have apioneersx-727receiver, I'm the original owner (33 years).
Recently theradiostopped working.
Everything else works great.
FM, AM no difference does NOT work.
The tuning meter does not move as I turn the tuning dial.
If I turn the volume up, I can hear some static thru the speakers.
Occasionally theradiowill spontaneously work for a while,
and then return to this dead mode.
All the other inputs cd, turntable work fine.
Any ideas what the problem might be?

Just resolder the transistor. You will see that the solder connections there
have ring cracks from age and heating / cooling over the course of time.
Common problem.

Hi ,
I decided to lift the board and look at the solder for the device
sanyo 313e.
Before I could do anything the V shaped metal (heatsink?) attached to
the
device just fell off. The plastic screw holding it had just cracked in
half.
There also is a thin piece of plastic between the device and the
heatsink.
I'm assuming that they do want the device to touch the metal.
I could not find a another plastic screw, so I use a metal one with
an
insulating washer. I hope that is ok. Why does the device need to be
insulated from the metal heatsink. Is it strictly pecautionary, in
case
the heatsink comes in contact with something else. Would it be ok
to put some cpu grease between the device and the plastic insulator?
Anyway after all this the solder looked ok, so I did not resolder.
I wonder if my problem all along was that the heatsink
was just hanging on by a thread.
Anyway it seems to work ok. I'll run it for a while with the case
open
as a precaution.

places like Mouser, Digikey etc.. have hard things like that.
