The first thing I would look for in this situation is bad solder
connections, at the speaker terminals, and maybe at the output IC and
protection relay. Also the relay could be cutting out, though this is less
common on receivers of this type.
Most Pioneer models of recent (the last 15 years or so) have little to no
direct access to the main board - even just to look at it will require a
major disassembly.

i have my front right channel going bad.....it distorts and barely gets any
signal.....but then last night it worked fine........now today it won't
work......i know it is the front right because i hooked my left speaker to
it and it isn't the speaker it is the output........is there anyway you
could take a picture or something to show me some of the things to look
out....i have it here sitting open so knowing the more important things to
look at and kind of where they are would help greatly. thanks
