ensure the set is adjusted to receive the type of channels that are broadcast in your area. By this I mean that if digital is broadcast ensure the tv is setup for digital reception. I assume that you are using an antenna/aerial. Ensure that this correctly installed and is functioning, there may be a facility on the tv to check the reception via a swr meter of some kind, basically a utiliity that registers that an aerial is bringing in some kind of signal. It cannot be anything else, if the tv is setup for the local broadcast type and the aerial is connected the signals should be found unless you have very bad reception due to environmental conditions.... in which case you may have to invest in a reception booster/signal amplifier.

look on the screen sides or under the tv there should be a power button. push that once to turn the tv on and off

Most LCD TVs that are three years old or older that have the "sound but no picture issue" have experienced a failure of the LCD backlight circuit.

then you have your tv set to over the air not cable look for that in the menu

if you have the remote an can access the menu set it to cable an then autoscan.

did you set it to cable an then do a channel scan

there is always a fuse in all tv's if the fuse blew then you will most always find some other fried component.

you have to choose cable in menu then do a scan its likely set to over the air

you cant its most likely that the lcd drivers attached to the lcd is shot , its because lots of these tvs have no cooling fans so the solders become brittle. or some one hits the front of the screen an it will damage them. its a trick to fix them if its even possible other wise the video board has gone south from some capacitor thats dried is 2nd choice. id not wast the money fixing it because your guess would be wrong most likely.

now set the menu to cable an scan the channels

Hi Dan, Your TV must be in guarantee period. call the service center.

check vedio in cable & its connector
