Quillan Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 If everything else fails and you know another Brits who has a Sky box try taking it round their house and connecting it to their dish if they will let you. At least you will know if its the box or the dish. If it is the box I bought a new one from a bloke on Ebay (UK) who charged me £55 including delivery and a 12 month warranty. He seems to have sold load and has a 99.9% rating and has been around a few years. Mine worked fine by the way, much quicker than the old Panasonic one I had.

Iceni Posted November 14, 2010 Author Share Posted November 14, 2010 All's well with the world - problem cured though I'm not sure how.Removed and re-inserted all leads (again)Removed card, polished on shirtfront and replaced some minutes later (again).Switched off at mains, waited what seemed like hours but only 10 minutes and switched on (longer wait this time)."Searching for listings" message then I left the room to check whether steam driven sky box in another room worked. It did so dish must still be on the wall.Sky+ box now working.Thanks for all your help.John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
