    Hi, yes i know its a 1000uF / 3.6v capacitor and the one in my eurovox looks fine, but i'm just trying to eliminate the possibility that it could be this. Cheers!

    It doesnt need to show any visual signs of failure. You need to replace it with a 16V 1000uf cap, part No. VH50E at Maplins. They will have it but wont know unless you give them a part number.

    I still think its a TSOP fault but changing the C14 along with the Jtag is recommended.

    Thanks satsmo, your help has been immense. Fitted new cap ( part no. VH5OE, 50p from Maplins ), jtagged about a dozen times until it succeeded. installed new firmware and hey presto! its better than it was before. CHEERS

    hello satsmo hope you can help me i have 2 dead eurovox max v black 2008 boxs both doing my head in.

    On the one i get 0000 on display and remote doesnt respond to the box i get on the screen channel currently unavailable i tried jtagging and it erases and writes succesfull but still only get 0000 on display i have tried numerous firmwares and still vcant seem to sort it .

    second box all i was getting was ---- scroll around the display when powered up then nothing i tried jtagging this box it said erase succes and then it failed on writing now i dont even get the ---- scroll around display i have swapped power boards over in each box still to the same effect do u think these could be the c14 or c18 capacitor m8 as i found in 2 different forums which is the correct cap to change c14 or c18 thanks for any help satsmo very much apreciated and keep up th good work
    thanks in advance
