Hi all,
Ive replaced my faulty diseqc motor with new geotrack h-120 diseqc motor but after I installed the new motor and as soon Iconnect the coxcial
cable to my technomate tm-1000d receiver the receiver menu coulour which displayed on my tv screen gone total green and the receiver didnt respond to the
remotecontrol and kept switching on and off, despite replacing the receiver the same happend.
It did work fine with afriend humax5400 but not with my TM receivers.

Could possibly be a current overload caused by the motor, seems odd that the Humax is OK with it though. If you disconnect the LNB from the motor, do you still get the problem? Is there a possibility of swapping out the motor for a different make?

Set the dish on a satellite, disconnect the coaxial cable from the receiver to the motor, connect the same cable direct to the LNB, set the receiver to NO diseq and see if the problem is still there, if its not its the motor.
