Other Common DS-TV error codes
If you see E04 – Please insert smartcard on your screen, your decoder is not detecting the card. The E04 error usually happens after cleaning or moving the decoder. To fix E04, power off the decoder, remove the smartcard, clean the gold chip gently with a soft dry cloth, re-insert it firmly with the chip facing down, and power it back on. This reset clears E04 in most cases.
The E05 – Unknown Smartcard message means the card in the decoder is not paired to that decoder. You will get E05 if you use a card from another house. To resolve E05, make sure you are using the correct card for that decoder. If the E05 error continues, dial _120_68584# to re-pair your card, or use MyDStv app to send a re-hit.
E06 – Smartcard Failure indicates the smartcard is damaged or corrupted. When E06 appears, first try the same steps as E04 - remove and re-insert. If E06 persists after two tries, the card itself is faulty. You will need to take your decoder and ID to a DStv service centre to replace the card showing E06.
E07 – Checking Smartcard is not a fatal error, it means the decoder is trying to read the card. You will see E07 for about 30 seconds after booting. If E07 stays for more than 2 minutes, power cycle the decoder. A stuck E07 often clears after a reboot and signal refresh. If E07 still does not clear, clean the card as described above.
E100 / E101 means your smartcard failed to validate on the network. Both E100 / E101 errors appear when there is a communication glitch. To fix E100 / E101, check that your signal is above 70% and do a reset via MyDStv App > Fix Errors. If E100 / E101 remains after 15 minutes, your card may need a manual re-authorization from DStv support.
The E107 – Smartcard Error is a general read error, similar to E06. When you get E107, power off the decoder for 1 minute. The E107 message should disappear after restart. If E107 returns immediately, try your smartcard in another decoder if possible. Persistent E107 means you need a card replacement.
E33-4 – Insert correct Smartcard shows you have put the wrong card type or a card from a different decoder model. E33-4 will not clear until the correct paired card is inserted. Double-check the smartcard number on your decoder. If you are sure it is correct and E33-4 still shows, perform a factory reset from Menu > Settings. Contact support if E33-4 persists.
E16 is the most common error. E16 – Service is currently scrambled means your subscription is inactive, unpaid, or your decoder needs a refresh. To fix E16, first check if your payment went through. Then send a refresh signal via MyDStv app. Leave your decoder on for 5 minutes on a free channel. Most E16 issues clear within 10 minutes after payment, and a persistent E16 can be fixed by support.
E17 – No Active Subscription means there is no active package on this smartcard. You will see E17 if your account was disconnected. To clear E17, renew your package. If you already paid and E17 still shows, ensure you paid to the correct smartcard number. The E17 error needs a re-hit after payment to restore viewing.
E19 – Subscription expired is similar to E16/E17 but means your last package has ended. When E19 appears, your channels will cut to E16 after a while. Pay for a new package to fix E19. You can also clear E19 quickly by using the My DS-tv app to reconnect. Once reconnected, E19 will change to E30 while validating.
E30 – Checking the subscription status means the decoder is contacting DStv to confirm your payment. You will see E30 right after paying or after a refresh. Normally E30 clears in under 2 minutes. If E30 is stuck for more than 15 minutes, reboot your decoder. If E30 still hangs, check your LNB signal - validation needs signal.
E32 shows your decoder is downloading your entitlements. The E32 message often appears after a long time off. Leave your decoder powered on and connected to the dish when you see E32. Do not interrupt E32 by unplugging. Usually E32 clears on its own within 5 minutes.
E37 – Invalid channel number means you typed a channel that does not exist. You get E37 if you press e.g. 900. The E37 error is harmless. Just press OK and enter a valid channel. If E37 appears when you select a channel from the guide, that channel was removed from your bouquet, so E37 is telling you to check the new lineup.
E42 – Parental Control lock is not a fault, it is the parental lock. E42 appears when you try to open a restricted channel. To clear E42, enter your PG PIN, default is 1234. You can disable E42 permanently from Menu > Parental Control. If you forgot the PIN for E42, reset it via MyDS-tv.
E43 – Channel not available for your country means that channel is geo-blocked. The E43 error is common near borders. You cannot fix E43 by resetting, as E43 is policy-based. If you believe E43 is showing by mistake, check your decoder's country settings. Contact DStv if E43 appears on all channels.
E45 – Service not allowed means your current package does not include that channel. You will see E45 when trying to view a premium channel on Access. To resolve E45, upgrade your package or use BoxOffice. If you already upgraded and E45 still shows, do a subscription refresh. Most E45 errors clear after the refresh.
