Box worked fine on Monday, turned on last night and no signal on both tuners.
Assuming the dish is ok is this a sign of failure and can it be fixed.
My box is a launch day one so probably 12+ years old now

Assuming the dish is ok is this a sign of failure and can it be fixed.I would suggest you need to rule out LNB and cable problems before blaming the FOXSAT.

If it was purchased on launch date (23-10-2008) it is approaching 16 years old.

Cheers, is there a known failure with the tuner?
Didn't realise was 2008, it's a great machine

Hi Robster,
Have you checked that the cables from are VERY TIGHTLY connected on rear of pvr? They come loose very easily over time or if you move equipment. Might be worth rechecked & undoing & then reseating cable by tightly TWISTING cable into the F Fplug connector & rescrew into pvr. It happens! Hope this solves your problem. Yes, it's a brilliant pvr. I have several around home, all used pvrs that I have picked up. Built like tank! John L
