Why my power plug to the decoder gets too hot and tv switches off

First try a power cycle. Remove the wall plug for 5 minutes. Press and hold the power button for 2 minutes. Let go and plug the decoder back in.

If that didn't make it work, it's time to test the power supply. Take out your multimeter and test the power plug end for voltage. It is likely to be 12 volts DC. Power adapters can be sourced inexpensively.

Or send it back and get a new one under warranty.

This happens because of the color decoder in the TV. A TV color decoder has a switch that makes the TV image black and white when the received signal does not have sufficient power. Your TV color decoder switch remains in the black and white position (the TV receives weak signal or the TV color decoder is damaged).


Replace the TV antenna, try an antenna amplifier or a digital receiver before the TV.

Try this qiuck solution as it works most of the time:

Switch off your DSTV Decoder or Unplug power supply cable at rear of Decoder.
Remove your Sim card and wait 90 seconds.
Switch your DSTV Decoder back on or plug Power supply cable back in at the rear of your Decoder.
Enter your Sim card and wait for your Decoder to re-scan (about 2 - 3 minutes).

why would you want to connect a hdd dvd to the strong decoder. Wouldn't you connect it to a television via the hdd dvd av output into the av input of the tv and then switch the telivision on input source to AV1 .
You did not mention the model number of the strong decoder but is this a digital tv to Analogue TV decoder.?
you might also have HDMI output and HDMI input on the devices .
That would be better to use if it exists. If you only have one AV input on the TV use a AV switch box and switch between the decoder and the HDD dvd device using

This tv 100% have power supply board problems and might also have the T-CON decoders board problems too.The power supply board,that the board,where the power a/c cord plug into it.The T-CON decoders board,that the board sit wright in the middle bottom of the LCD screen panel.Tries websites like Shopjimmy.com,Ebay.com to buy a whole refurbish power supply board for the replacement.Replaced the power supply board,should get ur tv power up right away and work,no more series of clickings noises.But,if the tv still have alots colored pixels lines on the screen.The T-CON decoders board it also dead.Replaced the T-CON decoders board too.

Hi there! If you have a decoder and this was plugged in on the panel it may have damaged the input board. Alternatively have the decoder checked first or try another TV on the same decoder. Lightning can hit the dish and run down through the line into the decoder and/or into the TV. Best Wishes and Good Luck, JUS004

Hi
You must have the tv on standby, that is why when you try to switch on decoder/dvd player.
Most common fault on a Thomson tv would be dry joints (bad soldering) mainly around hot and high voltage parts, eg transformers and high voltage transistors.
Unless you are into electronics field, know the safety procedures and have good soldering iron, take to a repair shop.
