A message displaying ”no signal” tends to be generated from your TV and normally means your TV’s not seeing the Sky box on the relevant HDMI input.

If a message displays “no satellite signal” it relates to your Sky Q box, so firstly check that the connections from the Sky dish going into the back of your Sky Q box are still finger tight. Otherwise it’s likely to be a dish alignment issue so check the troubleshooting in this link

It may then give you the opportunity to arrange an engineer to check the alignment of your dish. If it doesn’t you’ll need to contact Sky to book an engineer appointment.

If you are connected to a communal dish you need to liaise with your building management company / landlord who will have their approved engineers to contact.

Remember, a misalignment is not necessarily something that will be visible to the naked eye and could only affect one or two channels.

If you've tried all the recommended steps then you will need to call Sky.

They asked you to wipe the hard disk?  (A strange piece of advice for satellite signal reception issues)

Re: No satalite signal

Having done all the obvious, ie checking cables, leads, plugs etc..... that only leaves the dish as the cause. I have no idea if an engineer is booked or what is going on, but I do know that I won't be speaking with India again!  If you ask a question they start all over again with their scripted speech! I just loose the Will to live!!!!!

You could always get a local independent in to do it (at your own cost)
