Sky+ Digibox Rf2 not working, HELP!

Our lights flickered last night and the tv briefly switched off.

Now i cannot change channels on any of our tvs that have a magic eye, even though the red lights are on them, and you can see the eye flash when you press the remote as if it is working. but nothing.

I have gave it a full system reset by turning off at wall and turning on whilst pressing the left and right buttons etc

Have also done a software upgrade doing the same kinda thing.

Have went to the installers menu and turnes off rf2, saved it and turned it back on.

Is my box needing replaced?


thanks

    Have you went into the sky+ services menu to check if the RF outlet is swithced on?

    Services, system setup, then press 0,1,select, then RF outlets.

    Hope this helps
