Hi @Sherryka 

First you need to make sure that the TV set is switched to the correct HDMI input for the Q box.

Check that the HDMI lead from Q box to TV is fitted correctly and then use your TV remote (not your Q remote) to cycle through the Inputs to see if it can find the Q box.

I have exactly the same issue. When I disconnect the HDMI from one tv on which I can watch sky and then plug it into a different tv it displays "no signal". However when I search through the sources, the tv has identified my sky Q box but says "no signal". Any ideas what to try to resolve this?

I am having the exact same problem. I have a Philips TV. I use the TV remote to cycle through the HDMI channels but that does nothing, always says 'No Signal' despite identifying the HDMO channel as Sky Q.

I have to repeatedly restart the TV until it finally finds the signal.

We had a Sky engineer over to sort a signal issue about 8 months ago and he told me that some Philips smart TV's have issues with identifying Sky Q signals on HDMI. I'm not sure if there's any truth to that.

Having the same issue. After watching Netflix on the TV app (as the Sky Q one does not work) the TV won't pick up the box even though the green light is on

Most likely dodgy hdmi cable losing sync. Could be problem in the TV HDMI board. Could be a faulty HDMI output on the Sky box.
