[QUOTE="justone, post: 574492, member: 311066"] Well, where to start, just joined this forum, mainly because my AD3000IP is dead and googling was telling me it's worth having a look in here. When I keep it from the mains, and plug in in, one of the relays starts clicking for lets say 20 seconds, rubbish on the display, and then the relay stops, but apart from the rubbish on the display, nothing happens. I'm currently in the process reading all this, and I'm pretty happy with the shematics. Damn good. I'm also somewhat skilled with a soldering iron, ya know you have to take it with your hand at the smallest diameter since then you won't need to hold it for that long. ;-) Well, not too deep into electronics but I'd say enough to replace components if only I'd knew which ones. Thus, if anybody could think what might cause the above mentioned symthoms I'd be glad. Or perhaps a hint on what to check first. And if you ask me I really hate all these manufacturers supplying PSU boards being the worst of the whole lot. I recently suffered the very same problem with a KiSS Dvd Player, but was lucky they sent me a new PSU PCB for small money. Something Echostar seems to be not able to. hope some's out there with a helping hand, in case not ...ya know it's x-mas now .... [/QUOTE]
