Hi,
Just acquired a Pace BSKYB 3000 sky+ box but it's stuck in standby. I've connected the hard drive to my computer and found it's a FAT32 filesystem and in fine condition, also tried other hard drives in the box to no avail. I'm thinking maybe it's not hard drive related because of the symptoms:
When I plug it in, the red standby light comes on AND the remote command light comes on as well. The green disc lights up also, none of these lights flash or anything, just steady on. If I press either the info, backup or tv guide buttons, all remaining lights on the front panel light up (play and record inside the green disc, and a yellow light and something else on the front).
I wouldn't have thought the remote command LED should always be on, and assume this to be a bad sign for the mainboard.
Has anyone else had the symptoms like these? Does anyone know if the remote command LED lighting up the whole time is an error light with a certain meaning?
Thanks,
James
