Not the Anntena, I mean the device that controls the motor of the Antenna and gives it orders to move from one satellite to the other

It sounds like you have a big c/Ku band dish with a "jack", which swings the dish along an arc facing the Clark Belt (geostationary satellites like the ones that broadcast satellite tv live up there). The jack gets power from the receiver (which knows via programming which satellite it is looking at and where along the arc the dish moves through that satellite is). If you have a picture but the dish won't move, the receiver, jack, or the wire between them has gone bad. Check for blown fuses at the receiver, then check the wire, then check the jack. If all else fails, find a local satellite tv installer and have them test the receiver at their facility. But here's the bottom line- the new systems are better, cheaper and easier to install. If your old sytem is broken, consider upgrading- it may save you a bundle.

I presume that you mean a satellite antenna (a "dish".)

It's a servo system.
