Junk yard fix
2700 through 4900 IRD
Contact points: sb39 and sb40, located to the right of the tsop, providing
you are looking
at it from the front.
Meathod: short before applying power, apply power, 3 seconds later, unshort.
DP301.005 and DP301.010
Contact points: looking at IRD from the front, r275 and r281, just below
left tsop. Go here
to see a picture.
Meathod: short for LESS than one second, immediately AFTER applying power to
IRD.
DP301.013
Contact points: sb39 and sb40, located one on each side of the left tsop for
dual flash
models, or only tsop for single flash models, providing you are looking at
it from the
front of IRD.
Meathod: short for LESS than one second, immediately AFTER applying power to
IRD.
DP501
Contact points: looking at the IRD from the front, your first contact point
is just below
the ANT IN/TV OUT box (left of HDD), at diode cr20. You want to connect to
the right side
of that diode. The second is just below the right tsop. It is a tiny silver
dot, just above
and between sb18 and sb19. This is the hardest contact point to solder to
for all IRD's I
have tested for the "Junk Yard Fix".
Meathod: short for LESS than one second, immediately AFTER applying power to
IRD.
DP508
Ihave not had the pleasure of testing this IRD, yet, but I believe it would
be the same as
the DP501...maybe someone can confirm this.
If anyone can think of one I might have missed, please post it here.
Note: If this does not work for you, in the amount of time I have specified
above, you need
to fix your eeprom first. Use flashedit or satFTA's IRDr (both are great
little proggies)
to generate a clean virgin eeprom. Also, Dish Pro IRD's may have to be check
switched prior
This info was copied and pasted from a post on another website i did not
write it use at own risk.
PS my 3100 all have been wired and used the fix
on them at one point or another no problems.
