Display "lnbp" on Globsat decoder

Hello, for some time now I've had an LNBP display on my decoder, and I can't access the menu. I've re-done the wiring and changed the head but there's no change. Could the decoder be broken? I don't know anyone else who has the same one. Can we test it? Thank you.

Hello,
It's an impossible mission with your vague description... Provide details about the brands and references of the relevant equipment.
How do you expect someone else to recognize it... without knowing more?
You might have a short circuit or an overload on output "F" of the decoder... unplug this F connection and see if the message still exists...??

Hello
This is a Globsat GS2000 decoder. The error message "lnbp" appears on the decoder's screen and on the TV it displays "LNB short circuit, turn off the receiver and check the cables." The same messages appear when the satellite cable is disconnected from the decoder.

OK, so, this is a short circuit in the coaxial cable going to the LNB... and to see the message disappear, you need to restart the "decoder" after unplugging the "F" connector coming from the coax...
What have you done recently that is related to these sockets, the cable, or the LNB?
The fault may be in the connection of the "F" socket... the coax cable... the LNB itself.
A tiny strand of the coax braid touching the core of the cable is enough... but also water getting into the cable, on the dish side...
However, if after that, the message doesn't disappear, the fault is probably on the decoder side...
With a tester on ohmmeter, it's visible...
