Can’t get itv2

Hi. When trying to get ITV2 I get error code W02. I have completed all the checks - rebooting both hub and V6 and checking connections. The box is definitely connected to WiFi. It seems weird that one channel is affected. Any ideas please?

Hey there @mnsolihull, thanks for reaching out to us.

Sorry to hear you're having issues with your Virgin Media TV services.
Before we do any other checks are you able to take out all the cables and reconnect them for me?
Also does this issue happen on a wired connection?
And if I may ask what is the channel that is affected? (Channel number as well please).

Let us know.

Kind regards.

If you still get this error after checking every fitting on the white cable is tight you'll probably need a technician to have a look at your signal levels

Broadcast TV channels come in direct from the coax cable, so this is nothing to do with the hub or WiFi connection. Can you confirm you have no issues with ITV4 or PBS America (including pixelisation or momentary freezing)?

Just checked and ITV4 has the same issue. Can get these on ITV Hub but annoying I can’t get via V6 box as I can’t record or get subtitles via Hub.

Are you having problems with ITV2-SD on Ch115 or ITV2-HD on Ch176? Same for ITV4 - SD on 118 or HD-178 The channels to check test does depend on the answer.

W02 is a classic "loss of signal" error in either case, so I'll add my standard reply to all "my picture is pixellating" queries. If you've rebooted your box once, then there's likely a fault somewhere, so this will need VM to intervene. You're likely to need either an engineer visit or a replacement box, depending on what VM's remote diagnostics turn up.

First check the automated faults line for any existing issues in your area that could be the cause: 0800 5610061. If nothing's reported, assume VM don't know about your fault and ideally you'll need to call them.

150 from a VM phone, 0345 4541111 from any other phone - choose the options for "I have a fault with my TV service". Alternatively you can wait on here for staff to respond, which may take a day or so.

Fixed. Engineer visited and found eroded cable between box outside and V6. Now replaced and all sorted.
