    Had a power failure a couple weeks ago. The power eventually came back
    on but my Scientific Atlanta Explorer 2200 cable box didn't, it's
    completely dead. I bought an Explorer 940 to replace it, but I miss the display that the 2200 has. I would have bought a new 2200 to replace
    it, but all the stores in my area were selling the 940 (even my cable company).
    If not too expensive, I'd like to repair my old 2200 (or have it
    repaired). Does anyone have any idea what the problem could be? Could
    it be something simple to fix (like replacing a fuse) or something more complicated (like replacing a power supply)?

    J'ai un explorer scientific Atlanta 2200 de disponible
    Je suis à Vaudreuil Dorion.

    L'Explorer est mort depuis 12 ans.
