    Q5 HD PVR keeps rebooting after few minutes? Help Needed?

    I have a Q5 HD ive been using for a year plus.
    Problem is now box eep rebooting after a few mins (3-5 mins)

    Any moasters here care to help point out what is the problem so i can self repair. Thanks

    Was wondering wheter its a bad capacitor but very unsure which one is causing the problem. Any help from the masters here will be greatly appreciated.

    Take a pic of the powerboard.
    Note down any model numbering on this small pcb.
    AliExpress had few online shops selling these DC-DC board for wide ranges of china-made STB.

      It's been reported that the capacitor I have circled on the attached photo is the one causing problems.

      It's 2200uF 16V 105?C.

      The top of the capacitor should be perfectly flat, with no bulging, and with no leakage from the bottom.

      Make sure the box is unplugged from the mains before removing the cover. The components inside the thick white line are at mains/high voltage.

        Replace U12 (1.8v) and optional ec21 + ec22 (220uf 16v).

        Change ec18 10uf (50v)
