My tv only finds 3 channels max during set up and once it finishes there isn't any sound for the static picture.

I have a 1.5 year old Sansui 19' LCD flat screen TV in my dorm room. My TV has everything set on analog idk why and it only finds 3 channels doing set up. Even when it finds them my picture is not clear and there is no sound on my TV. Where are the rest of my channels? No one else in my dorm has this problem.

Set the Channel scan for cable input, not antenna.

SOURCE: TV No Picture

My 32D40U would turn on for 5-10 seconds (Please Wait would appear) and the screen would go black. Sound Normal. It would also sometimes do this after running 5-10 minutes. I read somewhere that the inverter board would come loose and lose proper ground. I took the set apart, removed the board, and cleaned up the grounding points. I reassembled using some copper paste on the ground points and LockTite on the screws. I used some contact cleaner on all the connectors going to the board. I noticed two cables that are covered with copper shield tape where too tight at their connectors and repositioned the tape to give them some slack. The problem hasn't occurred since the fix.

Why does screen show static instead of video?

If you only see static, it's because you got no signal. Look up in your user's manual how to find channels (air or cable)

If you don't have a manual, do a google search for terms
MANUAL, SANSUI, AND THE model OF YOUR tv

YOU MIGHT SET SOMETHING LIKE THIS;

My TV picture is not coming in and neither is all my channels.

Perhaps you have the TV set to receive analogue TV rather than digital (DBV). Consult the manual about receiving a digital signal.

My sansui hdlcd1909 19 in. lcd tv won't turn on. the standby red light blinks once, what can i do to turn it on?

sounds like bad capacitors on the power board. Very common problem. I would look at the caps if any appear even slightly rounded on top they are bad. They should be perfectly flat on top any puffing up means replace that cap.

Sansui sled2480. I am trying to use a cable splitter from my tv to my daughters Sansui. I have it hooked up, but she can only get the channel I'm watching. I had another tv set up the same way and she...

It seems you are using a set top box to access tv programs. I that case when a person changes the channel all the connected TVs will change. You should use extra set top box for multiple independent viewing.

My Sansui LCD TV scren is black but there is still sound and when u change channels, you hear it changed the channel but no picture! its all black

The backlights inverter board or the power supply section for the backlights inverter board may have gone out, you need to take it apart and troubleshoot it with proper tools.

Thank you for your concern. Yes the problem is solved. It turns out the cable company did something to change the settings on our audio. Don't ask me what or how they did it but someone told us about it and how to correct it

Again thank you very much
