I have a Goodmans GFSAT101SD. We had a power cut yesterday and when the power came back on the green light on the box came on,but no sound or vision, can not turn it off now either using remote or power button on box. Is it fixable or a Bin job & start again??? Thanks

    There isn't one. Have found the problem, neighbour lent me their one and that did exactly the same. The cable at the LNB end was damaged and the screening was touching the centre core causing a short circuit. All fixed & working:j
