      Mate why not to wash it? is there any reason?
      its easy for me to wash it but wont be easy for me to replace it as its hard to get to ,
      i can streach out the window to wash it , but will been to get some one with a ladder to replace it.

          give it ago then ..see if it works ...im saying ive never washed a lnb before ..never .

          they usualy crack the plasic normally as they get worn anyway ..i find .. its pretty old yours being 10 years plus.

            Give it a go, can't hurt, provided the connection(s) are adequately weatherproofed.

            Though if you're dish has been up ten years, there's a good chance the LNB and/or cable are shot.
