A self check happens every 10 minutes

My direct tv receive stops and does a self check about every 10 minutes.

That likely indicates a failing hard drive. You need to call for a replacement.

A self-check that often is suggesting the box may be going out.

What model receiver?

Have you tried either a red button reset or unplugging power for a minute?

Is it just the one box having problems?
