Is the power lead plugged straight into a power socket or is there an adaptor box in the middle?

 

If it's dead (checked the fuse and socket?) then you'll need to call Sky for a replacement box.  (Remember to remove your viewing card)

You haven't got one then. V2 Q boxes have them. V1 and v3 do not, they have internal power supplies. Suspect easier to fix/swap without losing your box and therefore recordings if that is what has failed, which your symptoms suggest may have happened.
