If it was just a plain DTV one id toss it and replace it, but if its an HD one... that may be worth messing with, not sure tho, only HD Tuner I have is my Samsung one (forget what model, but its a nice hD tuner)

If all else fails, SMASH it Mr. Green

I NEVER smash anything. I love it all! It's HD, I have other HD tuners but this has VGA out. Convenient.

There is a firmware upgrade. You can try that. It's at the bottom of the page in the link. If that doesn't work you can try to contact them. If they don't know whats wrong ask if they can give you a copy of the service manual. Make sure yours is a plain 205 or a 205LE.
