Yea, what he said.
Let me see if I can state this clearly. (honestly? well I'm not a salesman, just a old country doctor)
If you already bought the part Digi-Key recommended earlier, please use it. It is fine. I did.

think i just blew the little fuse. have to check it out. moved the solomend s9 upstairs to hook it up for the wife. had to use a different cable to hook to the gbox. unfortunately i had crimped the cable with a door in the past and the cable was shorted. now solomend just has the red light and once in a while displays on but nothing else. going down to kc this week so will pick up a couple of the little fuses. life goes on... charlie
ke4est and Pixl, Thank You! I recieved the part Monday. (That's incredeble speed by the the postal service to these parts) Finally had the opportunity to install it today. I did not perform a 450ma burn in. Put back into operation, returned to perfect S9 serial # HD10C1B99-003944
The original part, W60 065, did work for 2+ years, Heaviest draw is less than 200ma.
Failed part exhibits a 5v drop @ 100ma. after 20 min. from 'cold".
Thanks Again!

if that part fails will the receiver not boot up? thats what happened to me a couple of days ago when i hooked up a shorted cable between the receiver and the gbox. charlie
something else is wrong then. when it failed, i unhooked the lnb and it booted up ok, hooked up the lnb and failed again, unhooked the lnb and still failed... just got my az box so have plenty to play with but mary has couple broken bones in her ankle so i am busy traveling to the hospital yesterday and today... life is not boring. charlie
I would answer that question with a qualified possibly! It would be worth getting a meter out to check it.
BTW, We arer praying for Mary.

Hello sir,
I have a openbox x3 also has this part near the tuner.
My openbox boot loop. I flashed with the null-modem cable RS232 Cross but it changed nothing, it continues to boot loop. I even tried with several firmware.
Do you think the problem is the fuse malfunctioning on my machine? I had a conductivity test with a voltmeter and it sounds. is that by replacing a fuse equivalent, i can reboot my openbox properly?
An electrician told me that the fuse is a special fuse to reset the machine when there is a problem. He advised me to replace it with a simple blown fuse when there is a short circuit.
Thank you enlighten me on this subject
I translated in google because I'm French. I understand English a little.
good to you,

Bonjour,
Si vous êtes à mesurer la tension à la prise d'antenne, il est à 13v verticale, horizontale 18v.
Mais je dois penser que ce sont les neeeds firmware à télécharger. Pas le fusible.
merci

goodnight,
I tried all software solutions. compatible with all firmwares for my openbox and even those that have advised me on Internet forums. F3 with firmware or S10 receiver does not light up.
compatible with the firmware I see the image of the home screen and immediately after it reboots and starts like this indefinitely.
