[QUOTE="mickeydebo, post: 555495, member: 301984"] Hi Thanks for all your help on this problem, its a good challenge for me. Im not sure if i have the skills to overcome this problem but ill give it a go. I have managed to check the voltage of the transistor Q71 and found that there is O volts reading from two of the three legs Im not shure wich is the base,emitter and collector so will explain them from looking a the top wth the tuner above. Tested all legs with the negative attched to the chasis. I also made sure I was on a channel that uses high band (sky news) Top left leg O Volts Top Right leg 0 Volts Bottom leg 13.08 Volts or 18.08 volts dependng on polarity. I have checked this with another dreambox 500s and the readings were as follows @ 14.26 Volts Top left leg 0.54 Volts Top Right leg 0.91 Volts Bottom Leg 8.86 Volts @ 18.08 Volts Top left leg 0.59 Volts Top Right leg 0.94 Volts Bottom Leg 12.14 Volts Am i going to put it in the bin or is there another problem from another transistor?
