Sky box not working
My sky box has stopped working and has a solid orange light. I have reset this but it still doesn't work properly.

Re: Sky box not working
The engineer has shown me how to reset this problem before but now it is not responding and I believe needs an engineer call out.
the box isn't stuck on stand-by and displays an orange dot and not a red dot.

Sky no longer offers engineer attendance for Sky+ HD as it's an obsolete platform. They'll advise you to migrate to Sky Q, or preferably Glass/Stream.

Re: Sky box not working
You'll need to source your own engineer now as Sky will not send one for Sky+

@Andy1310 if it's not stuck on standby, tell us what it's doing or not doing and what you mean by not responding.
By the way, orange is standby on a sky+HD box.
