Hi mate
Its the caps that you need to change, if you have any hdd connected or usb sticks for picons then remove them and try to reboot otherwise try and flash with latest image but beware make sure your box is not a clone.
which caps need replacing thanks
Here is the thread showing how to do it

That was the thread I was looking for and meant to post cheers timofee
i changed the capitcoator now and still got red light
If you are sure you replaced the correct capacitor there is information in the same thread about a regulator that needs to be replaced.
Most people with the red light problem have got their Duo back working again with just a new capacitor. Double check the value of the capacitor you used, that it is the right way round and that your soldered joints are good.
In the end you might just be unlucky and need a replacement motherboard.
