Winegard SWM Dish keeps Searching-won't lock on

i've had the dish for 6 months. it worked fine until the other day. now it just keeps searching...we've moved to 3 different locations, weather is clear, no obstructions, etc..
went on roof to physically check and no problems. sent photos to windegard and they don't see any problems either...

has anyone had this problem? please help..i'm missing having TV

    i want to update our situation:
    winguard sent a new lnb, it was replaced but didn't help us.
    we then replaced the coax cable and now we have our satellite working again!
    it was an inexpensive and fairly easy fix...the hardest part was diagnosing.as frustrating as this whole thing was, i do want to say a huge thanks to everyone who posted a response but most importantly, to DENNIS12 who contacted me personally and took the time to help...thanks to this group and to Dennis for sharing !!!!!
