Blade 7000s flashing red light

[zee24]

My blade just shows a flashing red light on the front no picture, have switched off from the mains and back still doesn't come on jsut the flashing red light.

Ive googled and read other forums and tried the factory reset by holding down the menu button after reboot but the menu screen doesn't show.

Im guessing it's a PSU problem ive had the box nearly 2 years and I bought it off ebay at the time, how do I get a new PSU if it is that and how much would it cost and are they easy to install??

Psu are easy to install on blade, few screws and a couple of cables, 10 minute job. Try Satsecure, they defo keep them

cheers ive been on satsecure website but don't know what im looking for exactly could you post a link if you don't mind ive typed in psu for blade and it come up with blade remote

You may have to phone satsecure and tell them exactly what you want, or if your handy with a soldering iron you could probably replace some of the caps that may have gone or the other choice if you dont get any joy from satsecure try Technomate and tell them you want a PSU for a TM5402HD MK1 its identical

Call them, they should sort you out. Maxking should also have them, he's the starting point for blades when they come into uk

[zee24]

just rang satsecure he said they don't sell them or have any in stock but may be able to get one but waiting for a call back.

[zee24]

had no luck so far in getting one, maxking haven't got any and Technomate didn't answer the phone so emailed them instead

[zee24]

cheers guys just a question are Technomate reliable I ordered the PSU from them had to give card details over phone ordered the TM5402HD ?? oh and he said theres no such thing as MK1

[digicon]

there is they just call there revised model a MK2, it is identical apart from they say now incorporates a security chip that stops the Chinese from cloning it

[zee24]

oh right he did say MK2 I just told him the TM5402HD and he ordered it hope thats the one.

I hope it is the PSU that's the problem all the forums ive read for people with same probs seem to think it is.

Got the psu today changed it but red light still flashing. Will I have to do a manual reset with null modem cable or could it be something else??

try rebooting box with no dish input connected to box
you could have a short in your lnb or cable

[digicon]

If its still Flashing it could be a mainboard issue, so send the PSU back and get a refund then perhaps think about selling this as spare or repairs

[potrobber]

can you tell me how much the psu cost ?

[zee24]

?31.50 from technomate
