How to solve the 8118 error on DSTV

DStv Error 8118

This error indicates that there is a problem with the internal power supply of your DStv decoder, which is preventing it from functioning correctly. A faulty internal power supply could be caused by several factors such as a surge, hardware failure, or a malfunctioning component within the decoder.

You can contact the DStv support team or visit an authorized service center to arrange for a replacement or get further assistance regarding your decoder.
