Help t-shooting with schematic - Onkyo tx525sv overheating resistors
This has several resistors and an area about the size of a quarter that is looking a burnt brown on the pcb near the front of the unit. There are about 5 or 6 ringed resistors total in this area. Tested and results below. When using the tuner/radio portion all seems to be fine (uses the bypass mode for radio). When using the bypass feature (which only utilizes the 2 rear channels I believe) for the video/theater audio, this works too. The option to use anything that utilizes the DSP portion is a intermittent. Just a low hum or his is presenting thru speakers sometimes. Shame to toss this in the trash because this receiver is an oldy but goody. Seems like I could replace a few resistors and all would be well? Hopefully the community here will be familiar with the issue. Thanks in advance! I have located a service manual but lack the knowlege to read it (link below). I also have pics of the overheated resistor location.

Hi Edward,
My experience with old electronics is that capacitors deteriorate with age. Look for bulges on the top and leaking brown goo. I fixed a NAD amplifier and a Technics turntable by doing this.
Here is a link for the service manual for your receiver which should help:

HiFi Engine is a very good site for old electronics. You may already know this but it may help others reading this."
