What is connected to each tuner?
What is each tuner configured as?

Answer separately for each tuner please. It is for you benefit.

Try swapping the cables round and see if there is any change on Tuner A/B issue. Might be an idea to set tuners as nothing connected one at a time.

Note:
You don't select tuner to select a channel. You select a channel and receiver uses the configured tuner for it based on what is avilable/any user preferance. Channels are called "services"

To answer your question of how to make receiver use tuner C, you have to select a satellite service/channel.

I swapped the cable no difference, I then set tuner b to nothing connected set a recording going and then tried to turn over to bbc hd it said no free tuners but also when I look at the epg the channels are all grey as if I cant watch them
not sure what to do next how do I know what is a satellite service channel by looking at the epg?

Option 1.
Open your chanenl list, press menu. There is an option to show service type icon.

Option 2
When you open your list of services, press green for satellites, you can then select cable, or 28.2 (or any satellite other satellite installed)

Option 3
If you are using ABM to obtain chanenl data
Add the provider name. You will then know if you have a satellite bouquet or cable bouquet.

Hi thanks for those options am I right to think as long there is info in my cam and both green that all should work I think maybe I need to start again , if I reset my box will it go back to how I first received it or will I need to reflash it?

I have already learned a lot and I think my abm setup isn't as it should be

Flashing is best way to remove everything

Just to let you know, for a while i fusing CCcam, you need to be on version 2.3 to use two services.
