Hi, it seems I'm the latest to have this fault and thank you to Black Hole for advising me in another post. I have gone through this significant thread with all the information, thank you to newcoppiceman for his original diagnosis work. I am planning to replace the 4u7 capacitor but have not...
OK, so I need to change the 4u7 capacitor. Seems fairly straightforward at least, but I've got to find my soldering iron somewhere in the loft! Can you point me to where I can source a good replacement? I'm unsure with all these different voltages, values and manufacturers (are there any to...
Thanks again. Are there specific instructions to adding the capacitor, including which capacitor to add and where to solder it in, and where to source it?
Thanks Black Hole. I read through that and ran fixdisk as this seems easy to do. Looking at the logs its fixed a number of orphaned inodes but everything else seems to be in order.
However it still has the problem. Does this mean duff capacitor do you think? I don't think I have the skill to...
Hi, my box has suddenly started behaving oddly. When switching on from standby (when its been off for a time) it displays START SYSTEM then CUST FW 3.13, then switches itself off and back on and goes through this loop for around 4 to 5 minutes. Then it stops and switches itself off. If I then...
Hi, I'm sure this hasn't always been the case, but my Humax HDR Fox T2 struggles to pick up all channels on ArqA (Dave etc) and ArqB (Film4 etc). Signal strength is around 35 - 40% on both and results in scrambled pictures on the channels on ArqA, but strangely the box seems to give consistent...
