sky+ second input issue

[Navi]

Hi,
I bought a second hand AMstrad box but I'm having problems recording. After a number of tests and checks, I realise the problem is with the 2nd input. No signal is going through this. The signal is there but it appears the problem is with the connection on the receiver.

Does anyone know how I can fix this?

Thnx, Navi.

By "connection" do you mean the F-Plug or F-Socket.
If it's the plug just strip the cable back slightly and re-do...make sure the box is unplugged before reconnecting...if it's the socket unless you're experienced in handling electronic equipment and neat soldering...forget it.

Yep its definately the socket on the back of the receiver.
Can this be fixed? Of course it might be more complicated than that.

Thnks.

It's the sort of job your local TV repairman could do.
