How to Clear Dstv Error Codes Via SMS

Dstv Kenya has made it easier to clear error codes. Long are the days when you had to wait for a technician to be sent to help with errors on your decoder. There are three distinct ways one can use to clear Dstv error codes. that is by SMS, Dialing *423#, or through DStv Eazy Self Service.

Let’s be honest , it sucks when you see the E16 error message despite the fact that you have an active subscription. Right?  Most of the time this happens when you make your monthly payment for your subscription. 

If it happens that your decoder is turned off when making the payment, you will definitely get the E16 error because activating the subscription might be delayed.
