Hi @PFKett  I think it would be best to start off with a Software Update on the box. You can find this torubleshooting here

 

Let me know how things go once you've completed that 😀

Thanks

Hi @PFKett 

Is there anything resting on top of the Sky box that could be pressing on the buttons?

All sky boxes have a back up button on the box and remote control
