not sure of model number
thanks for replying to my problem
is it possible to check power from RF2 with a meter ?

[dholdi]

How many rf outs are there ? On my (amstrad box ) there are 3, rf 1 seems to be the top and middle and rf2 is the bottom.
Yes you can check the output with a multimeter - should be 9v dc, I think centre pin is +.

one RF2 at the bottom

hi sam have checked it out before
the magic eye works in my old sky box
but not with my sky+ and it says it is compatible with sky+
i think there is no power coming through RF2
if that is the case thinking of contackting sky only had sky+ box 6 month

According to Sherlock Holmes "When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth". If you've eliminated everything else, the Digibox must be faulty.
