My TV Screen has gone green

Hi all. Can anyone help with my tv screen problem. I have Sky TV (digital) and when i switched on the TV i see a green screen. The picture is there and sound and all the functions work properly but its green. We had some heavy rain this afternoon and i think its been since then. I am not technical so i was hoping someone could shed some light on it for me. My warantee cover has run out from sky now so i am hoping its going to be simple to fix.
thanks in advance

My System: Sky+, DB 7000s, Gemini 4.3 in flash, Var on USB stick. Transparent 80cm Dish, Moteck SG2100 DiseqC motor, lots of legacy gear. Meters: Satlook Digital NIT, Unaohm EP313, Swires Annie 204 Spectrum, Rover ST-4 Spectrum.

Try a different scart lead, or at least check the connection of the one you have. Also try changing the output from RGB to PAL composite, or vice versa.
