    Folks
    Need some help or advice please.

    My sky box is on, the sky remote is working when i press the buttons , but nothing coming on, i have tried done a manual tuning search via the tv remote to find my lost "sky channel " but nothing, can find all other normal tv channels but no sign of my sky channel.
    Anyone any ideas on my problem ?

    Cheers

    possible ---- make sure the TV channel is on EXT 1 or EXT 2 --- anyway go to channel 1 on the TV and go backwards 0 is next , AV is next, then the ext 2 and ext 1 are next

    Still no luck with getting my sky channel back, every cable in where it should it,
    Has me stumped big time, guess i need to get someone with a bit of knowledge to come out to the house and look at it.

    try this - pull out every plug and cable from the sky box. Make sure the sky box has no power going into it. Leave it like that for about 5 minutes. Then plug the sky box back in and connect all the cables to the tv again.
