Also have the "ON"-flashing light, no-responsive unit, was repaired by Pioneer but same issue happening again.

The ON button does nothing on the unit own. Only way to power up is with the remote. Very satisfied with the sound quality but disappoint with the configuration. To do over I would have selected a blue tooth model.

Not sure about this one..... try the Pioneer's customer support, they should be able to help you regarding this matter.

I've similar issues and I've contacted Pioneer but they say there isn't any sw upgrade to fix these annoying start-up failures

Brilliant! I had the same issue, cleaned the LED screen, and now it is working. Thanks Lloyd Wilson!

Pioneer should have a one year warranty for parts/replacement, so I would get in touch with Pioneer's customer service dept.

I had a similar problem, sent unit back and they replaced it with a new one

I have this same problem. It's happened twice now, each time I had to send it back to Denon. After the 2nd time, I've asked for a replacement instead of a repair. We'll see what they give me, but I'm guessing they'll replace it with a refurb unit that will probably have the same issue.

Same issue here. I already sent one back to Onkyo for replacement, and the replacement does the same thing.

Sounds like a faulty unit- just tried to replicate, and can't duplicate the problem.

Yes, I suspect that is the case, Arlo. The unit I replaced was acting in the same manner. However, it might not hurt to have a qualified tech expert troubleshoot the problem.

If it is charged up, then hold the on button down until it lights. If it doesn't, it is likely faulty.

Mine is always flashing. I will check tonight and let you know if you can change it.

Make sure the arrows on power adapter connector and the light strip are lined up. Also hit some other buttons on the remote. Could be a damaged sensor.

Lisa Nankov's answer is correct. Some units do not respond to all functions. Mine for example is stuck on the purple backlight.... can't change it.

I would plug the old one back in and try that. It will blink fast with the led but if its getting power then you know that you have a bad unit.

Mine has similar problems and I plan on fixing it by installing a different brand unit .

Sounds like a flaw in the remote's circuit board. The leftmost power button (red) should always turn the receiver on or off, even if you are using the universal remote function to control other components. I would contact Pioneer to get the remote exchanged. Hope this is helpful.
