    Stopped Working

    My dm800hd has stopped working. When I switch on no lights come on at all although there is a buzzing sound from the box which wasn't there when it worked.

    I got it from ukdreamshop in june this year. What can i do ? Do they give a 12 month warrenty ?

    Can i fix it ?

          I brought a box from there and the tuner died after 2 months so mailed him and he sent me a replacement tuner. From past expeience he didn't do a 12 month warranty but seemed reasonable whenever I had any problems. Call them and see what they say about the box.

            I've emailed him but not heard back yet. Anyone else had this problem and know what it could be ?

            Just a buzzing sound from the box and no lights come on.

              Yes i started a thread over a week ago about mine same problem, could be anything from PSU to needing new capacitors, reseating tuner, also check sim card is in place properly. I tried all these and still had no luck

                Just before it stopped working it said something about tuner failed. It was showing the sat moving symbol in the top right corner of the screen but I hadn't moved the dish. I checked the sat signal and it showed zero as if the dish had moved although I didn't move it.

                I tried to move to another sat but it wouldn't move. I then tried to rest the box and it never came back on.

                  Ukdreamshop usually do 12 month warranty and have resolved a few issues i have had with faulty boxes, although they may have to send your box back to china if you have had it more than 30 days. I have pm'ed their msn to you.

                      Great if they have 12 months warranty but I wouldn't want to wait while they sent it back to china. How long would that take ? I can't be without everything until thats all done.

                      Does anyone do repairs ?

                          Its the power pack. I tried 1 from my daughters netbook and it worked fine. I'll just have to get a new power pack and everything should be fine.
