Lost connection to second tv

[Driver123456789]

Managed to lose connection from sky box to second tv (no signal on second tv) Not sure where to put the cable as there are two ports on the sky box and also the cable has in and out on it! Tried both ports and cable set to in then out but still nothing...:don't see anywhere else to plug it into if indeed that's what connects it! 

Thanks in advance

hi @Driver123456789 

Where is your second TV - if it is in another room then it is highly likely that TV is connected via an RF cable (usually called Aerial) rather than the AV or Scart connectors you have pictured

On the SKy HD box this is usally plugged into the RF2 connection & the mnormal TV Aerial input on the TV

hi @Driver123456789 

Looking at your 2nd picture again - have you switched over to SKY Q (the box on the top looks like  SKY Q)

If this is the case you cannot use your existing cables directly like you did with SKY HD

Hi, the second tv is through the wall to the kitchen. I have a sky Q box but do not see where an ariel would fit. Everything was working perfectly on both tvs until this no signal message. I am ignoring the scary cable now as was a red herring! Thanks for taking time to reply

@Driver123456789  Sky Q boxes do not have RF inputs/outputs, the original aerial cable from the Sky+ box setup should still be behind your unit and should allow you to simply put both ends together as one will be a male connector and the other a female connector

@Driver123456789 

So do you have a small SKY mini box in your Kitchen 

[Driver123456789]

No it was connected via the main tv somehow. Only have one box

In which case when you say it was working perfectly was this after you got SKY Q and were you just using it to watch Freeview TV (i.e. no SKY or other Satellite channels) ?

[Driver123456789]

Hi again, no only using sky Q?

Hi, again just for clarity, on the second TV (in the kitchen) you used to get the full Sky Q interface/menu's etc?

[Driver123456789]

Hi, the second tv showed whatever channel was on the main tv only. No menu or anything for sky

hi @Driver123456789 

So going back to the 2nd image where does the cable with the pink plug go to - is it a splitter box ? 

[Driver123456789]

Hi, thanks again for taking time to help

The pink sky cable goes from the sky box into the back of the main tv at the moment. The bottom connection In the picture (the top cable goes into the splitter box)  have I  got the cables mixed up?
