T3 Beyonwiz 2TB - Not booting

Post by jhtemail » Fri Jul 29, 2016 22:12

I have a T3 with a 2 TB HDD it just started rebooting and rebooting so I put in the USB key with the image in an attempt to reimage it.

It then stopped booting and the main display just says "Beyonwiz-T3" with a red light in the front.

Now this is all I get, the unit will not boot and I don't know what to do next. Is this a motherboard fault, HDD, Power supply or is there a way to get the unit to boot.

Please help

You can try switching the T3 off at the wall for at least a minute, then try switching it on. If it still doesn't boot normally, then you can try a USB firmware update again.

If you still can't update firmware (using a USB stick that has worked before for USB updates), then it is probably a hardware fault with the T3 that will require it to be sent back for repairs.

See this post for a similar issue, and PeterU's sage advice.

This is most likely a failed regulator on the main board.

It seems to be quite common. And the unit needs to be sent back to Beyonwiz

Many many T3's are currently failing with the same fault. Unfortunately you need to get it repaired. Read this thread for more info.
