No power to Eurovox Blue - Techwatch: Satellite TV forums, FTA, Cable, Hardware, & Tech forums

My mates box just died on him recently. There is no power at all it seems. Tried the reset button, and last night had the box open, moved it and almost got murdered by the electricity systems voltage that shot through my arms for around 6 seconds before I managed to drop the box.

Wow! I'm ok though, I can laugh about it now.

So, anyone know what could be causing this "no power" thingy? Or is it now a door stopper?

Just goes to show that not for nothing are the notices on the boxes saying DO NOT OPEN unless you know what you are doing....you were lucky this time,let it be a warning....

take it to qualified service personel or as you say use it for a doorstop

capacitor probably needs replacing at location c14 on the PSU board. Plenty of info on it for you to search for m8. Piece of **** to change it.
