@MrsMH you may need to find the TV remote that came with the TV and try using that to switch from terestial to the HDMI port that your Q box is attached to
I may be a Sky Superuser but I am still just a Sky customer
Sky Q 2 TB (Silver)Box, 2 Mini boxes since June 2016, all connected by wifi
Sky Broadband Hub/SR203, Sky Ultrafast broadband
Ultimate on Demand, Q Experience/UHD, Sky Sports, Sky Cinema

Hi @MrsMH I would start by power rebooting both you TV and Sky Q box. Did you buy (or get) your new remote from Sky or a reliable source (I.e. not eBay). Make sure that it is in IR mode (line of sight) and hold down 4 & 6 until the led flashes. Then as long as HDMI control is on, switching on, the Sky Q box it should turn on the TV on the right input.
