F3 unbricked still problem

[Tech54]

Hi, I have managed to unbrick/recover an F3 with no problem except when I connect the Satellite feed the screen goes pixelly. Has anybody else had this happen and is there a fix. The satellite feed is fine and has been tested. Any help much appreciated.

At a guess I'd say the tuner. Try your box on another satellite feed.

Thanks for the reply, the box did get extremely hot and then stopped working, I have replaced a power unit (from china) in one of my boxes previously but not sure which one, It could have been this box.

Unfortunately replacing the tuner would be a solder job with a number of fine joints. Just invest in a new box.
