Transponder issue

Solved

For the past two days, following a storm accompanied by strong gusts of wind, my TV is displaying that I have a transponder problem, specifically a short circuit on the LNB.
Could someone tell me what this is about?
I would be infinitely grateful to you.
Thank you in advance.

Good evening,

If I understand correctly, it's a satellite reception...?

Winds and storms may have slightly shifted the orientation of your dish... so you’re receiving poorly or you're missing transponders, hence the message...

The short circuit could be due to water mixed with rust that has entered the LNB or the "F" connector at the end of the COAX... or the wind might have jostled the coax in its socket, possibly poorly insulated, poorly secured, or the installation is not sturdy enough for the weather... and the center conductor of the coax is touching the sheath or the inner circle in the F connector

You should start by fixing this short circuit issue before thinking about adjusting the positioning settings which may no longer be necessary.
