Help: right channel not working on Yamaha rx-v3000

It worked just fine over 10 years, but a few weeks ago, the right channel ceased working. I accidentally turned it on for a few days, and after that no sound came from the right main speaker. I only hear some static noise on the right speaker. All other speakers work fine.
Does this sound an easy fix?
Many thanks for your input

Maybe the dac is ready for a retire.

Have you try unplug it from the AC outlet for a minute to reset the processor?

Thanks for response.
Looks like DAC parts are dead.
I ordered digital to 5.1 analog signal converter. Hope it would work, even with sound quality degrade.

The digital to 5.1 converter, with the 6.1 channel input from the receiver, worked just fine. It cost me $60 for the converter and I guess I can save the Yamaha receiver for a while.
