The brown marks around the gold chip aren't burn marks, but discolouration of the adhesive that binds the two parts of the card together. It's very unlikely to affect the performance of the card.</P> Tue, 28 May 2024 13:58:14 GMT https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Sky/Scorched-chip-on-viewing-card/m-p/4653101#M149024 Mark39 2024-05-28T13:58:14Z https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Sky/Scorched-chip-on-viewing-card/m-p/4653106#M149025 <P>Okay, thanks for the reply,</P><P>That's less of a worry, I thought the sky box was a fire hazard.</P> Tue, 28 May 2024 14:01:45 GMT https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Sky/Scorched-chip-on-viewing-card/m-p/4653106#M149025 Halina1 2024-05-28T14:01:45Z
