Troubleshoot A Dish Dvr 625

The Dish DVR 625 is a dual tuner digital video recorder receiver offered to Dish Network subscribers. Features include 120-gigabyte hard drive, 200 feet remote range, dual and single mode availability and extended electronic programming guide. If you are experiencing some problems with a Dish DVR 625, you can try to troubleshoot the issue on your own.








Instructions


1. Check the screen for an error message code. The Dish DVR 625 will likely display a numbered message on screen if an error has occurred during operation. You can find the meaning of these codes as well as fix the issue in your reference manual or on the Dish Network website.








2. Be sure you have correctly entered the password you previously set for your Dish DVR 625. A feature of this DVR is the ability to lock the receiver, preventing use until a password is entered. If you have forgotten your password, contact Dish Network for assistance.


3. Make sure there are no obstructions, such as trees or tall shrubs in front of the satellite dish, that are interfering with the signal to the Dish DVR 625 receiver. Precipitation, such as snow or rain, can also impede the signal. You might want to check with Dish Network about ways to increase your satellite signal strength to avoid service disruption during bad weather.


4. If the picture is black or fuzzy, review your TV and receiver settings. Make sure the television and receiver settings are the same. For instance, they must be using the same channel.


5. Check all of the cables and connectors running between the satellite dish and the Dish DVR 625 receiver. Make sure these are tight and dry.
