My echostar AD-3600IP was recently disconnected by decorators and my installers seem no longer to be in business. There are 4 twisted pairs of wires which control the motorised dish. Which pair goes where? I can't find any documentation and would appreciate some help.

Welcome to the forum.
The two larger wires probably red and black will be the motor supply, the other two will be feedback from the reed sensor. Check on the motor it'self first before connection. What colour cables do you have?

They can go anywhere, there is no specific wiring plan, you need to open the case, on your motor, and mark down which colour is M1, M2, GND and Pulse, do NOT attempt to connect the wires to the receiver until you find out the correct information otherwise you could cause some serious damage.
