still trying !!
does the box need to be in stand by mode ?
when i switch it on each time :-
i get the 4 bars across the fron 1 after the other
then -70-
then on
then the channel number
i can press the stand by button on the remote which brings the time up. so again does the box need to be in stand by mode to flash?

No if you get ---- it indicates a bad flash, you just need power to it, so standby is preferable. The digits coming up on the LCD though may indicate a capacitor failure but we wont go there just yet.

do you mean actually open the box up ?

I said keep trying the bad flash method and look at this as a last resort. Its not that technical really and does mean you open up the box, 0 is not the only digit that shows up with a bad cap ;)
But as said its only if the bad flash method doesnt work. You can look at the cap and see if it is bulging or blown and then that will tell you.

Maybe I'm reading this problem wrong ? lol
(when i switch it on each time :-
i get the 4 bars across the fron 1 after the other
then -70-
then on
then the channel number )
You say when you plug in the b0x you have a channel number on the display ?
When you plug it into the TV what happens and what is displayed on the TV screen ?

scouser,
i am too scared to open the thing. i know nothing about electronics, even if i did open it i wouldnt know what i was looking for regarding a blown or none blown capacitor. i know where to look of course thanks to your earlier assistance.
also this isn't my box. i think i am going to return it to the owner and tell them to buy a proper one.
then if they say they dont want it i might open it safe in the knowledge that if i do any wrong its down to me only and i can throw the thing away if needs be.
thanks though i knew you guys would do everything you could to help
mark ..
