HR24 Issue

[Danny001]

One of mine is constantly freezing up and the fan constantly running. Any fixes ?

If you tried a reboot and problem still persists, probably bad hard drive.

Yes. Some have reported once they contacted DirecTV and they confirmed the issues, DirecTV didn't want the HR24 returned.

It does sound like a bad hard drive.

You can run diagnostic testing on your receiver if you like.

Reboot it, at the "self-check" screen hit the select button on the remote (or front face panel).

There are several tools, but the one that will be most useful is likely the short hard drive test.

The HR24-100 has a fan issue.

Just mention to 'em its fan is making noise and they send out a different model of the HR24 and probably tell ya to keep the HR24-100.
