Sky HD box
 

A friend has just called to tell me that his 'Sky HD box' has gone
faulty. He said that he thinks it's the power supply - something in
there on a heat sink is cooking up.

He lives about 60 miles away, so I won't be able to look at it for a
while. As I've never seen the inside of one these things, I have no idea
what to expect - or even if they're repairable. Anyone got any ideas/tips?

Phone Sky? These things should be in warranty?

I don't think so, they've offered an exchange for about £70. My friend
would prefer to have his repaired though - not because of the cost, but
because he doesn't feel too happy about the quality of their exchange items.
