I have a dish Network Vip 622 DVR reciever that would loose the signal and also have macro blocking of the image. At first I thought I had a misaligned Dish
but my other receiver had no signal loss or macro blocking .
I have been meaning to look at it for over a year and retired it to my theater and used the non DVR box for every day.
Well today I decided to finally open it up and have a looksie .
Yep about 5 bulging caps.
here is the removed board
So I changed them out with caps I had that were close in value.
Here is what my little parts tester revealed with the bad caps
2 caps were 880uf 6.3vdc and 3 were 1200uf 6.3 VDC
I ended up using 1000uf 35vdc for all as thats what I had.
New caps are much larger but there is a lot of room in this chassis.
There were also some other low end caps of 220uf 25vdc I decided to change out as well.
After the changes the Receiver is working great.
So if you have one of these doing the same thing it was an easy fix.
