- I have a 625 dish receiver and the 2nd tv does not work. I have been on the phone with dish technicians and no one will give me any information on checking out the separator. All I want to know is if I can check out a separator for continuity from the input on the separator to the 2 outputs with an ohmmeter. When I do this I have continuity from the input on the separator to the no. 1 satellite in on the separator but when I check input to and satellite 2 it shows no continuity. Is this telling me that the separator isn't any good because of no continuity from the input to the no.2 satellite on that side of the separator?
The problem is none of these. Run a check switch test or have dish network push a test through the satelite. I had this problem once and the switches tested good but the combiner was bad and had to be replaced. There are 2, 2 wire switches near the dish and they should go into a 4 wire combiner which splits into 2 to 4 wires depending on how many sets or controllers you have. Another solution could be distance related. I don't remember the actual limit but if you ahve exceeded teh distance from the receiver or at the max distance you can sometimes get this. I would call Dish and have them trouble shoot throught eh dish and isolate the problem.

I have been having DISH DVR problems lately. The most recent is my recorded programs list is not showing anything in it. But I only have 13 hours of record time left, so I know they are on there somewhere.
