Hey guys,

Tried turning it of for 5 mins and then turned it back on, it asks for the pin but when i type it in on the remote it doesn't seem as though its getting through to the T.V. Also, disconnected the masterlink and it didn't a difference.

Thanks for your help guys, i've got an engineer coming out today, so hopefully the problem will be resolved soon.

Hi there Peter and Darren,

My avant is connected via masterlink to an Overture. I will try the system reset when i get home and will also try disconnecting the the masterlink and let you know how i get on.

I had a similar problem last year when I was playing with my link set up. It was a loose connection in my ML cabling.

If your Avant is connected via masterlink then I would recommend disconnecting this temporarily if the hard reset which Peter recommends does not resolve the problem.

Is it connected to anything else? Have you done a hard reset? - unplug and leave for 5 minutes and then restart- you will need the PIN. Might be a minor component failure so probably time for a service.

Hey guys,

Strange problem, my Avant DVD switched off yesterday afternoon whilst my father was watching a show. When i press any of the buttons suchs as 'tv', 'sky' or 'power' it takes along time to react and doesn't show a picture. Haven't been able to get it working. Has this ever happened to anyone? Or any ideas of what could be wrong?

Thanks
