SOURCE: Channel Scan on my Philips 26" TV only finds the local channels.

Hi.

you should go into your tv's setup menu and go to the tuner settings and make sure it is set to CATV (cable tv) and not Antenna/Air also splitting a cable to many times can cause the signal to weaken and gain a lot of noise/distortion that could be an issue that can only be solved by having the company come to the house and do a test ALSO when your in the tuner menu in under your tv's setup menu try adding a non local channel manualy and then see if the tv will tune to it, if so then you might have to add them manually at the worst... my guess is that it is not set to CATV/cable tv hope this helps and if not i hope someone else can.

SOURCE: Westinghouse LTV-19W6 TV Won't change channels

I had the same the problem.  My tv would not change channels.  I had to run the tv through my dvd player to be able to view my cable channels.  The one solution listed did work for me.  Set your source to tv...press menu on your remote control...go down to the 4th icon...press the right arrow...move down to CH Auto Scan and press the right arrow.  The tv will scan for channels and once complete I was able to change channels again.

SOURCE: no tv signal on my olevia 232-s12

cable or Ant.. ? after the scan if there is no channels found (0 digital, 0 analog) then try with cable or Ant to see if any of them work.. if they still don't pick up any channels and the whole yellow progress line goes across.. then it sounds like the tuner on the tv is bad.. and the tuner is part of the main-board so the whole main-board will have to be exchange or repair.. contact Amergence technology they are a 3rd party repair center that service Olevia TV's and they will be able to give you an idea on the repair cost..

<<< Amergence Technology number is 866-965-3842 >>

Hey, most stations are not broadcasting analog anymore. That is why you are only getting 10 channels.

I cannot change the channel on Westinghouse TV. Model SK-19H2105 - Tried to do the fix mentioned for channel scan - cannot find the channel scan.

Press the “Menu” button on your remote or the side panel to access the On Screen Display

(OSD)

—Use the right/left arrow buttons to scroll across to the “Setup” menu

—Use the up/down arrow keys to select “TV” and “Quick Setup”

• Use the arrow keys to select your “Time Zone”, which allows you to receive

proper HDTV programming information

• Continue with arrow keys to select your signal source “Air/Cable/IRC/HRC”

—If you use a rooftop or indoor antenna, select “Air”

—If you use a cable service, select “Cable,” “IRC” or “HRC” (depending on the frequency

used by your cable service)

—Press the left arrow key to start scanning for channel

Antenna not working anymore?

talk with a tv technician as to the capabilities of the tv set but you may need a better outdoor antenna if the signal has changed from am to digital or fm in your viewing area

My Brand New 40" westing

To get HD channel form your cable TV without using the cable provider HD tuner box but using your TV Clear QAM tuner (your TV has Clear QAM tuner, my TV also has QAM tuner so I do not have to use the cabel box, but my COMCAST does not provide may Clear QAM signals like they use to) to get the unscrambled HD, the cable provider must provide those unscrambled Clear QAMsignals for your TV to pick up the signalS.

I have a Westinghouse 26 inch TV. Model # SK-26H590D. It will not scan channel 9. I have tried both the automatic scan and the find channel scan. It is hooked to a Phillips Mant 510 vhf/uhf indoor antenna...

I carried my Westinghouse TV to the basement. Unplugged the antenna from the digital converter box and connected it to my digital TV. I then re-scanned for channels and found channel 9. After carrying the Westinghouse TV back upstairs, I connected the original set-up and tuned to channel 9 which was now showing on the screen as no signal. From that point I moved my VHF dipoles until I had located the correct position for reception. A little labor intensive, but I was fortunate to have another antenna that was receiving channel 9.

No receipt of signal or antenae

Since it has voice or sound then I don't suspect the tuner but probably the tuner does not have the 33 volts that goes through r106 location number on the board. It is a 27K resistor and can be bought for about a dollar at Radio Shack. (pack of 2or3) A repairman or someone experienced in electronic soldering and desoldering can change it easily. Could cost around $50 to repair depending on the serviceman. If it has rca jacks (red, white and yellow) The tuner can be bypassed if you have a cable box that passed these signals: audio left and right and video. Hope this helps
