Hi @Kevin+B1967
Have you tried pressing the Standby button (Amber led) on the front of the mini box.
If this turns the mini box on
Try completly resetting your Bluetooth remote.
Press and hold 7 & 9 together on the remote until it’s led flashes four times.
Then make sure that you are pointing your remote at the Q box and press 1 & 3 together until the led flashes and follow onscreen instructions to re- pair.

Re: My sky mini box will not switch on and I need to keep switching of the power to get to work
tried the button on the mini box that does not work switch it off a the socket then it goes through the setup and comes on, but this happens every time i try to switch on the sky mini box, tried to leave the box on (green) and just turn the tv off, when i turn the tv on the picture is frozen and will not change chanel. I have 2 mini boxes one is new out the box last week when sky was fitted, and that does the same, think the sky Qbox is US and needs replacing wait for Sky to confirm delievery
