hi guys.

Not sure why but my dish 6000 crapped out on me. I replaced the power supply board and it worked fine but now I have an extra 6000 without a board. Can anybody point me in the right direction??

Thanks

Wow...I had no idea.

I called and after 20 minutes...they couldnt find the part # for a power supply board but for $19.95 (and free shipping) they are going to send me a new 6000 receiver with a UPS label for sending the old one back to Dish. Fkn A! Shipping is supposed to be 2nd day air.

Thanks Bob!

PS: the Dish Employee was trying to get me to buy the monthly warranty service for $2? monthly. Why bother when $19.95 will get you a brand new unit??? Dont figure.

How old was the old one. Was it still in warranty.

You lucked out Gregg. They're not supposed to do that unless you have the extended warrenty.
