Sandstorm s40ldib10

Strange one this is.
i got hold of this LED tv, as a non working, was told it would not switch on,
gets it home and discovered that the on/off switch on the bottom was off.
turned it on, pluged it in, and standby light is on, i then powered the tv on, and to my surprise it all lite up and seems to be working fine, put my PS4 on it though HDMI and used it for gaming for a few weeks with no problem,
well i decided to put it up for sale, so thought i would tune the freeview channels in, and this is where it fails, it will only find 5 DTV channels instead of the normal 140, done factory reset and still the same, its got to be a main board issue, but is it a simple fix, any ideas,
will post pics as soon as its in bits,

Is it worth your while doing a full reset and trying to tune it again?

I would think the factory reset would do the job.

Edit
I see you have already done that. Sorry

no probs m8, looks like another main board is needed, and yet again like gold dust.
