Is this bricked?

[Sicilian]

Been given a 500CS by a friend to look at.

I believe he switched tuners whilst powered up. Wont connect via any method, Dreamup, telnet, ftp nothing.

Both tuners get a picture on TV of the boot screen and thats it.

Is there a way to jtag these? Or is it bricked and ready for the bin?

The head on cap No. C15 on the power board looks slightly raised. Could that be the issue?

wont do any harm changeing as ive changed caps on couple that had probs and were ok after.
one needed caps on power and main.
im no electric whiz i just saw raised caps and changed them

I had this prob too, it seems the box is very sh*t it goes off too quick. What you do is leave it off and then connect it up using serial cable and ethernet with dreamup and just keep turning it on and off till it sends out a signal.
