Hi there,
Does anyone know why my set top box is displaying an ERR 1 message & what I can do to get rid of it? It started yesterday when the box switched from normal to running through all the numbers really quickly. Then it showed --:-- then ERR 1. Now if I leave it switched off for a while it sometimes works fine for about 15mins then all of a sudden goes back to ERR 1 again.
I've tried all the usual things to fix it myself but no luck. Telewest helpline can't get an engineer out until Tuesday....I need my telly!!!
Any help at all would be fantastic.
Thanks,
Lo
