Hi All,
I was wondering if someone had a cure to an issue I have. Recently got an openbox hd reciever and plugged it, was working ok but then moved a coax cable ever so slightly and now box is not turning on. is there a short circuit somewhere? any fix or has the receiver been damaged? there was a small spark at the time.... |

try unplugging the mains lead then unplugging the coax from the dish then switching it on if
it comes on with out the coax plugged in then there is a short on the coax usually at the f plugs remember be for you disconnect the coax or connect the coax un plug from mains first as there is power going up the coax to the lnb |

thanks, took the coax out of the receiver and turned it on......without much joy............the receiver not turning on ...........
luckily i can get a replacement but not ideal though.........maybe have to reset the box but there is no hard reset button that comes on.......... |
