Magic eye

teeleebee — Mon, 02 Jun 2025 06:58:39 GMT

My MIL has a tv & sky box in front room. She has 2 further tvs that she uses with a magic eye. Yesterday, both tvs said no signal. There was no sign of power from either eye. I plugged one eye into the sky box directly, and the power light came on. I have tried turning everything off and on again but no joy. I have tried with the rf turned both on and off.

Any ideas please?

There's a break in the connection somewhere after the Siy box's RF2 socket.

As both tvs are affected, the break is most likely between the RF2 socket and whatever splitter is being used to divide the single output from the RF2 socket into two - one for each tv.

It could be the connector that plugs into the RF2 socket, the connector at the splitter input, the cable itself, or the splitter.

Because they're rarely properly fitted, ,I'd look first st the connectors at each end of the RF2 -> splitter cable, then next the splitter itself.
