TiVo Kickstart Code 54 Details
TiVo Kickstart 54 Information
The TiVo kickstart 54 code allows for you to test your hard drive(s) using the TiVo itself. These operations take some time, and your TiVo won't be able to record or playback while these tests are taking place.
See the main TiVo kickstart page for information on how to get into the kickstart menus. Then see the information below on how to proceed.
