LG47LX9900 suddenly can’t see channels on coax aerial, displays “no signal”. Tried another tv on same aerial cable and it work ok.

Have now installed latest firmware and factory reset done but LG47LX9900 tv still will not auto tune. I know my digital coaxial aerial cable is ok as this tv had previously auto tuned on it and I’ve just auto tuned two other tv’s on it now, so the signals good but the LG tv can’t see it? I suspect the tv’s coaxial antenna socket has failed. Hope this help to identify the problem and a solution.

SOURCE: Sharp LC-52D62U HDTV won't tune-in channel 21.

I finally got Sharp to repair the TV. It was under warenty but they said if the problem wasn't with the TV they were going to charge me for the service call. I told them I wanted a new TV. They sent the tech instead of a new TV. He replaced the turner card and it worked!! Now I get all the channels as well as channel 21.

SOURCE: Suddenly the Tuner mode reports "No Signal"

Just a solution.

I attached a video recorder., and selected the video channel.
I was able then to see the channels through another AV slot extension.
Then I reset the TV to factory settings.
Samsung full HD reset code is 0000.
I used the original remote control.
I pressed the button TV/DTV to switch between mode., and from the menu I started
the option to scan the channels automatically.
Because the VCR was still connected it looks like it was forced to admit the channels.
I turned off the VCR and click on the TV the remote control for a known channel ( alternative control used) and surprise ... The TV started to react according to expected.
I disconnected then physically the cabling from the VCR and plugged in directly on back on the
wall connector. All is ok.
What was the reason ?
My wife dropped the alternative remote control ( not the original one) on the floor, and apparently an strange code was sent to the TV., which suddenly displayed " No signal".
I hope this can work for you.

Kind regards
Sanchez

SOURCE: on a Daytek 46 in LCD TV, no AV Digital Cable Signal, but HDMI OK

Had the same problem.
Fixed by unplugging everything from the power source, leaving for 2 minutes then plugging back in.
Works fine now.

Hi, We have a Panasonic Viera Plasma TV. The TV was on when all of a sudden we heard a few clicking noises and then the picture was lost and a 'no signal' message was displayed. We tried other channels...

It sounds like you have taken the steps to isolate the problem to the TV. it seems to be a bad tuner on the Main board. The no signal displayed indicates the TV is otherwise okay. If you have a DVD player or other source you can connect, and you get a picture, then your TV has a bad tuner for sure.

It is possible that the cable to your antenna is broken somewhere. You have the right idea to start there.
It is also possible that your TV is looking at CABLE instead of AIR, or visa versa.

Why i can't receive dtv

It is difficult to give you an accurate answer as there are so many things involved.

If you were getting a good TV signal before digital then there is every chance the aerial you have will pull in a reasonable digital signal.

The trouble can start from there. You must have good quality quad shield coax cable all the way from the aerial to the back of the TV. Old coax cable used with analogue TV won't do it for you. Even a short length of old cable can ruin the signal.

Then, you might need a digital signal amp if the cable has been split anywhere to different rooms.

It is possible on your TV to display 2 coloured bars, one to indicate signal strength and the other signal quality. They are not graduated with numbers, but should generally be about 3/4 along minimum for a decent picture. You can therefore see what is wrong in a gross way.

Aerial Socket on LG TV ceased working

Most likely the TV has a burned out receiver board.

Have lost all my tv channels (only radio left). Signal strength is poor. What do I do?

Check and replace your aerial if needed.
If your aerial is OK along with the downlead/coax lead, check the TV by substitution and if it is the TV, repair/replace the Band IV/V tuner unit.
Hope that helps.

Lost our freeview. New TV in bedroom (Sharp LCD, LC-19SH7E-BK), which has freeview and was working fine. However, we set up a magic eye so we can have SKY (which we can now use through channel...

if you have connected your sky box as per instructions, putting the aerial coax to it and a fly lead(as in a male to female coax as used on a vcr to tv) from the output to the tv's aerial input, then disconnect the aerial from the sky box and put it back to the tv. The skybox will weaken and even loose the signal.

Most of the channels breaking up despite auto retuning

could be one of a few things,
low signal strength, aerial out of line with transmitter.
bad coax connections losing signal strength.
coax broken inside, or old and not low loss.
Get the aerial checked for direction, half a degree out of line over a few miles and you will lose a lot of signal strength, as will old coax (aerial cable) and if you are using an unshielded coax you could be losing signal strength through the cable itself. Replace the connecters and try to use a straight run of cable instead of having joins in it as these joins, even if using connecters, will cause a weak signal. If yiu are running more than one tv off your aerial, invest in a booster.

Tv with built-in digital tuner not receiving any channels

Is your outdoor aerial a proper freeview aerial and are you in a strong or weak signal area.You can check here:http://www.stevelarkins.freeuk.com/freeview_digital_tv.htm
Also check your connections as the coax may be shorting with the braid or a bad connection.once checked try ordinary channels on upstairs tv and if ok retune all your digital channels.
This can be due to a few problems.Firstly make sure your aerial is pointing in the right direction as beam aerials attenuate(disregard) signals which are not pointing directly at the aerial.
make sure you are using good quality 75ohm cable i.e rg6 and connections are good and not shorting out.
The length of run of the cable will also affect the signal as will any splitters or joins in the cable.
If you know the signal is good in your area then it will be down to the aerial,cable terminations ,aerial position or a combination of these.
If the signal is poor you can either...Buy a high db gain arial which will amplify the signal and or a masthead preamp which will again boost the signal.
please note that if your aerial is not pointing in the correct direction then any boosting of a bad signal i.e ghosting...will only make it worse.
try starting from aerial direction then connections then a high gain aerial and or booster.
