Dunno why that should happen Fred.......Default PIN number is usually the last 4 digits on the sky card, perhaps that will sort it.

Maybe the parental controls had reset that way, and C5 was showing a 15 or 18 cert programme

Hope that helps

Cheers

Unless its been changed, the PIN number is the last 4 digits of the FIRST card ever to be activated in the box. If this number is unknown then you have to ring sky to get it reset
