In case you are unaware of what LNB stands for, it means ‘Low Noise Blocker’. The LNB can be found on your satellite dish. It is a piece of equipment that is responsible for receiving information from a satellite in space that sends a signal to the satellite’s receiver, which is connected to your television.
In case you underestimate the importance of the LNB, should it not work, your entire DStv system can fail. Needless to say, it’s rather important.
To ensure you know that your LNB has deteriorated or is broken and prevent a system failure altogether, you should take some time to troubleshoot any possible problems the LNB may be faced with.
How to Fix Your LNB
To fix your satellite’s dish LB, you should switch off the satellite’s receiver, which should be connected to your television. You must then wait 30 seconds before turning the receiver back on. Now your receiver is set to restart. Should you still not have any signal after doing this, you should move to the next possible reason why the LNB may not be working.
Check the cables connected to the satellite dish to ensure that it is not damaged. Ensuring these cables are also properly connected can also solve a very simple, yet disruptive issue in no time.
After you’ve ensured the cables are working properly, if the issue persists, you can remove the LNB connected at the end of a small structure, the LNB arm. This can be done by removing the screws from the bottom part of the LNB bracket. Then slide the LNB off of the arm’s end.
Now remove the cable which is connected to the LNB. Replace this cable with a 3-foot coaxial cable, twist the end thereof counter-clockwise. Then remove it and tighten the cable clockwise. Sliding the 3-foot coaxial cable to go through the LNB arm, you should slide the LNB back on the arm. Before securing it, however, connect the other end part of the 3-foot cable on the input port of the signal strength meter. You can now turn the meter on to check for signal strength. You can also move the satellite dish around to test for a stronger signal. If you are picking up some signal, you can rest assured that your satellite’s dish LNB is indeed working.
