LNB overload detected

[sadikyalcin]

Hi everyone,

I bought KD-49XF8796 model back around September. Always had this issue but I was assuming it was the LNB as it was quite old. However, I've replaced it today and I still have the problem. When I turn the TV on, I always get the "LNB overload detected" warning and there is no signal. I have to wait anything between 5 - 10 minutes to few hours each time.

I've tried the same dish with our old echostar satellite receiver which has no issues at all.

Can someone please advise on what I could do? I've tried contacting support but getting an access denied after I submit the form

@mars2020  thanks for the info. I will try your suggestion also. Meanwhile, if you find a solution to record all the channels, please let me know. 

I have the exact same setup that you have. A digital cable TV service with a CI+ CAM module.

Thanks

@mars2020 is live tv pause working when you remove the CI+? Recording is working for me but not live tv pause.

CI+ adapter from metal cause the issue with LNB /recording. Waiting to be delivered the CI+ plastic to see if the issue reappears.

Ticket raised with Sony and got the above feedback. Without CI inserted recording is working fine, but not able to access the coded channels.

Hi mlozoveanu, I'm not sure if there's a Sony TV that records from CI, what's the model of your TV?

Hi HannahEd01, A8 series and hope will work with the new CI+ card. The guy from local sony support recommended to request from local cable provider a compatible CI+ with my TV, however looking over cable provider website there is only one type so...I have to wait few weeks until will be delivered as it's out of stock now.

Hi mlozoveanu, do let us know how will it go!

Hi,

After almost 5 months received the new CI+ card (plastic) and the recording is working on the coded channels, except the 4k.

Hi mlozoveanu, thank you for sharing the update, I'm sure more users will benefit from it. Best wishes.

Hej mlozoveanu

I have the same problem with my Sony TV KD-55A85 4K OLED, when I remove CI+ CAM I can record broadcarsts, but can play well when it is in.

I want to hear where you got a CI+ CAM in plastic from, as I can not find one on the net.

Hi Hattens,

Requested from local TV carrier, in my case DIGI TV.
