You should be using your ship or your suit (if prompted to use it) in scan mode (Shift + 2) and not fixing it with the repair laser. There are quite different missions for signal leak scanning and dataleak repairing.

You do have to get quite close though.

I made the same mistake and repaired the leak without really thinking. Now the signal is gone and it's not reappearing. Is there a way to get it to show up again?

Edit: If anyone else has this same issue, I left the system and returned; that made a new signal appear.

I did the same thing as you, did you ever figure out how to make it appear again?

Edit: After some searching while alt+tabbed out and posting this, I tabbed back into X4 and a new signal source popped up and I was able to scan it :)
