Hoping someone here can lend some guidance.

We have been using our 45TX for years w/ no issues. For the the past few years, I've been using a Belkin power conditioner on my AV racks.

This past week, the 45TX has been stuck in Standby mode. They only way to power it on is to unplug power completely.

Any ideas how to fix this? Thanks.

I love seeing the same login name in different forums.
A quick 45TX search in Google found you on AVS.
No help here, sorry.

Yeah, I begrudgingly posted on AVS. I figured I get a more helpful response from the 'old guard' here.

to me it sounds like the startup relay has gone bad. Perhaps you can find a service manual online. Alternatively plug the amp into a power sensing surge protector and have the amp come on with the TV or some other device.

If you are confident enough , get he manual and locate the power on relay. Remove the top cover of the receiver and tap on the relay while trying to power it on.
