Sky+ or Sky Q?

@GL11 the brown discolouration is normal. It's not a burn mark and doesn't normally affect Card functionality. What exactly is the error message you're seeing?

The card is 99.9% not burnt, the resin they glue the two halfs of the card together discolour over time and because the card is made of light plastic the resin can be more easily seen, the dark blue cards were never accuses of burning because noone could see the discolouring 🙂

iIf this is a sky plus box then try performing a New Install

See question Q21 in my Sky Plus F⋅A⋅Q for New Install
