Yeah I've seen this/similar before.
First thing you do is hold in the power button on the decoder for 60sec. It will make three beep sounds. This is a hard reset and will fix your problem.
If that doesn't work you have what we call an N0-0B Failure. The only way to resolve that is to call MultiChoice. It's. Lengthy procedure dealing with them though so you can ask the rep on MyBB to help you out. He'll probably already be monitoring this thread so all you need to do is post "N0-0B Here: please help" and he will PM you.
....unless the rep today is Marietjie. She doesn't like us over here at MyBB.
What we have here is a classic case of an SPOI-1SP-0R7. I would still advise him to ask the rep for help with his N0-0B problem.Only do the bold piece, if it doesn't work call the call center.
We had a power outage and now that the power is back on, there is just a yellow light on, on the front of the DSTV decoder. It is not flashing or anything, just lit up. I have tried the "hold the power down for 60sec" to rest, but that did nothing as well. I have unplugged, taken out the smart card, waiting 20sec and put all the thing back again.
Nothing changes. Is this a sign that the decoder might have gotten fried when the power came back on? Would appreciate any pointers in this regard. Thanks!
More than likely. Have you considered cancelling Dstv?
My DSTV does the same
Flat hand is for a smartcard error for the flashlight error its a closed fist.Hit it hard twice with a flat hand, then plug it back in... then it should work.
