    So what is at fault, the tuner module (the tuner cards you can take out and move along) or tuner slot (the holes on the circuit board)?

    Label your tuners as H1, H2, S1 and S2. (H for hybrid, S for satellite).

    For example,
    if H1 fails whether you put it in Tuner Slot A, Tuner slot B, Tuner Slot C or Tuner Slot D, we can conclude there is a problem with Tuner module H1.

    On the other hand,
    if you put H1, H2, S1, or S2 in Tuner Slot C, and you always havea problem with it in Slot C, we can establish there is an issue with the slot/arrangement.

    Sounds to me like the slot for tuner D might be the problem as that is the slot that the tuner us in which works and the disappears as the OP has mentioned above.

    tuner arrangement

    I have slots A and C with DVB-C and C and D with DVB-S. Originally had DVB-S in slots A and B but this caused issues when recording 2 cable channels at the same time.
