I'm afraid Sky no longer support Sky+ and Sky+HD set ups (where you've posted).

You'll need to employ a local satellite engineer at your own expense to; check / realign / repair / replace the dish, perhaps repair or replace the LNB if that's the problem, or check the cables for water ingress.

If you have Sky Protect cover through Domestic and General Insurance you can call them but a customer previously posted on here that they wouldn't send an engineer - but they did offer the customer £65 towards arranging one themselves.

The alternative is contacting Sky to upgrade to Sky Q or change to Glass / Stream. If you upgrade to Sky Q any dish, LNB or cable issues would be sorted out f.o.c as part of the process.

@Gwen10 try switching your Sky box off at the plug for 4 minutes. While it's off, check that the dish connections at the back of the box are still secure.

If tjay doesn't resolve it, the cause is most likely a fault with your dish or cables. Unfortunately Sky no longer provide engineer support for Sky+ equipment unless you have Sky Protect, so you'll need to contact a local satellite engineer to take a look.

Alternatively now might be a good time to consider upgrading to Sky Q. Any dish or cabling issues will be addressed as part of the Sky Q installation at no additional cost to you.
