Somebody gave me a broken HTR-5560 today that was damaged during
shipping. When standby is pressed all I get is the click followed by
another click a few seconds later. There are no lights, nothing on the
display, no nothing. I check the fuse and checked for any obvious
damage inside (loose wires, etc) but couldn't find anything. Before I
rip this thing apart any further, is there anything speficic I should
check? Is it even worth it?

Thanks.

If damaged during shipping I would look first for cracked circuit board(s)
or the like.
Yamaha's have rather sophisticated protection circuits, not a do-it-yourself
type repair for almost anybody but a skilled tech. Even techs knowlegeable
on other equipment often have problems on Yamaha's. They're very good
receivers, but they're "different".
