  • TiVo edge won’t fully restart and stops with all lights (green red amber) blinking

    in the past few months, we have seen image pixelation and the image gets stuck on playback. Yesterday TiVo was unreactive and I noticed all lights (red green amber) blinking on the front. I disconnected the power and waited a minute. When reconnected I got the starting up screen and then a black screen and all lights were blinking again. I repeated the disconnect and left it off for 20 minutes. The unit did reboot and could watch live tv for a few minutes before the unit shut off again (with blinking lights). I disconnected power again, waited, then plugged in and same issue. Starting up screen followed by no signal and blinking lights.

    Has anyone had this issue or know what problem is indicated by the three blinking lights? I cannot find any hits when searching the symptom.

    On an Edge, three blinking lights means the unit has either a dead hard drive or no drive at all.

    We have replacement drive kits for TiVo Edges here:

      Thank you!! I can’t get it to boot to verify the model number. Will these work with all TiVo edge for cable machines?

        Yes - these kits work for ALL Edges - either cable or antenna.
