Author Topic: 110V Onkyo plugged in to 220V. Still any hope??? (Read 8270 times)

javauser · « **on:** Nov 04, 2012 at 08:43 AM »

Someone in our house plugged in my Onkyo TX-nR807 to a 220V outlet, but it's supposed to be 110V. I smelled a burning scent when I turned on the system. Now it won't even turn on.

Is there still any hope for my system?

Try bringing it to Toyama for proper diagnostics...
Toyama is the official distro and service center for Onkyo.

maayos pa yan, but it will cost you....

ouch onkyo 807
marerepair pa yan...ang kung pwede ung psu gawin nalang 220v

ATJr. · « **Reply #5 on:** Nov 04, 2012 at 10:40 AM »

yes, nandyan na rin lang iconvert na yan sa 220volts...

wow. toyama allows 110 conversion to 220 conversion?! pretty cool.

Verbl Kint · « **Reply #7 on:** Nov 04, 2012 at 07:44 PM »

How much would a conversion cost?

Ouch....sana maayos pa...sayang naman kung hindi..

Macmon · « **Reply #9 on:** Nov 04, 2012 at 08:03 PM »

hopefully the psu only and not other electronic parts

Called toyama before reg the same issue. They said they can fix it but its going to cost abit more compared to servicing local units. For car audio pioneer also does the same thing (charge more for import units).

Kung umusok at amoy sunog, for sure sira ang standby transformer at regulator circuit nyan. For 230 volts conversion, it will cost you kasi standby and main transformer ang papalitan o ire rewind. ipaparewind na rin lang ng Toyama yan kasi shipping those trannies plus repair cost ay malapit na cost sa brand new unit.

BAka kayang gawin ni Edrel yung nasirang transformer. Gawang pinoy pa!

Ouch! Mahal charge ng toyama if imported units I was told.

Di ba dapat ang unang bibigay dyan eh yung fuse? Sorry wala ako alam sa electronics..

Parang contradictory yun dalawang sentences mo sir...

Anyway, fuses blows when there is over-CURRENT flowing through them... what happened obviously was over-VOLTAGE.

Sometimes. the insulators of house wiring melts but the house fuse does not trip, that's because the current rating is still within the fuse's limits. Kaya it's safer to over-spec the wires, with respect to the fuse rating, kaya lang alam mo naman mga contractors, meron mga tipid mode and nandadaya.

In this amp's case, best case scenario will be a fried varistor, and the worst case is juanbote's post. So to answer the TS's post, yes, there is still hope.

Thanks for the explanation sir jojo... buong akala ko those fuses protects also if you plug an equipment to a wrong voltage outlet.. he he he..

Napabili tuloy ako ng yamaha rx v673 ng di oras. Hehe. But I hope maayos pa Ito.

saklap naman nito sir.. ang mahal pa naman ng receiver.. tsk tsk.. sana nga maayos pa..

Its confirmed bro, someone whom i sold a 110v unit asked me about this before and i consulted with toyama. They can fix it daw but the unit needs to brought to qc for inspection and pricing.

ultimatedls · « **Reply #25 on:** Nov 07, 2012 at 02:21 PM »

If my memory serves me right I think they charge min of P4,5k if imported unit.

current is directly proportional to the voltage at constant load..palitan narin ng fast blown fuse para safe.
