I have an HDR 1000s, which works, but following forums I read about the failure of the HDD or not.
Forums report a resistor failure, which was communicated by Humax itself but no confirmation.
If there is a common fault, where a resistor is going open or high, why wouldn’t Humax tell its consumers.
I have repaired satellite receivers, video cameras, VCR, TVs, and lots of other equip with surface mount technology for well-known manufacturers including PACE.
Replacing a resistor is a simple task. Tracing the faulty component would be the challenge but, in this case, surely Humax are aware and can tell us the failing component.
Come on Humax, either tell us the component(s) that fails or release a schematic for the receiver.
