Hello manoa3231 and welcome to the group

I took a picture of my Sankyo Crystella frame and marked the third button with the yellow arrow. This is a little above and to the right of the main power switch. My machine has a different auto play installed and I get the repeating message and flashing frame lights every time I power it up. After turning it on I press this button once and the machine finishes its startup process and is ready for play.

Thank you, it worked! I’ve been playing for a good part of this afternoon. I noticed that the sound from the left speaker appeared muted. There was some sound coming out, but very low and full of static. I checked the back and one of the wires for the left volume control knobs had a loose connection. I resoldered all 4 wires and now there is no sound from the left speaker. Do you have any tips on speaker connections? I did remove most of the old aolder before reconnecting the wires.

Glad that it is working now!

One of my speakers had the same issue and quit working a while back. I just haven't taken the time to dig into the wiring but I suspect that my control knob has died as my first guess. Take a look and trace the wires back to the speakers or other part from the control knobs. Something else may have come loose or got crossed. I'll get a look into mine this week and report back anything that seems peculiar about this frame.
