RCA F13137--Have direct connection from cable (basic only) to TV. Autoprogram only finds 16 channels. Same set up with another TV in same jack finds 75 channels.

press both channel buttons at same time or if you have a menu button. Then go to tuner options or channel options, look for the "autoprogram" option. Select it and it will scan all available channels.
If you have dish or cable, or direct tv, make sure your tv is set to CATV. if you have regular tv, set it to AIR

At least you know the set does work. I'm also assuming your satellite receiver is working and that all your cables are good.

There are two ways to hook up to the TV: RF (antenna) and the A/V jacks. Maybe the seller was using the RF input (the threaded round connector where you screw on a cable connection, then choose channels with the set's tuner), and you're trying to connect using the A/V jacks (the red, white and yellow RCA jacks). If that's the case you need to switch the TV to those inputs. You may need the original remote to do that if the TV doesn't have a front panel TV/AV button.

The other possibility is you're connecting the satellite receiver to the RF connector and the TV isn't on the right channel (usually channel 3 or 4). If you're using the RF input, have the TV autoprogram and it should find the channel. Most sets can do that from the front panel menu button.

Hope this helps. Thanks for sing Fixya!

Guide plus still works even if you don't have the wand hooked up. In the setup section of the guide plus there are several questions that must be answered properly or it won't function as you would like. It maybe labeled as options as well. Thanks

The tv should be on channel 3. Otherwise, you can go to menu on tv, then find "autoprogram" and it will search all available channels. Usually tv should be on channel 3 if hooked up with a coaxil cable and aux or AV or Input if you are using rca jacks.

With the menu set to cable signals, the autoprogram should catch all of the cable channels. The Cable Channel option allows you to use either channel 3 or 4 as the "cable" channel. This is when you have an external box that you use to tune in cable rather than the TV directly. The easiest way here is to autoprogram the TV while playing a VCR tape. That will insure that channel 3 is included.

Does the autoprogram fail?

go to menu and scroll down to autoprogram-with cable box turned on- and run autoprogram; it will pick up ch#3.
Another option is to use video inputs and take video and audio using RCA connectors.

Hit the menu button, find and enter setup (or channels)
Choose cable or antenna (what you have)...... then make the set "autoprogram". It will add all channels into the tv memory.

Hook cable directly to television ( no box ) , Then autoprogram the set if you still have the problem replace the tuner it is about $30 rebuilt from Tip Top tuners.Do not attempt if you dont feel comfortable soldering precisely. IRIONS TV & Electronics www.Irionstvshop.com

make sure that ur antenna/catv is properly connected to antenna/catv input of ur tv...better check the center lead if ur using coaxial cable..then try to reprogram/autoprogram ur set.
navigate also on tuner settings...via remote..
if u get nothin after autoprogram..probably bad tuner in ur set..u need a prof tech to fix it...thanks hope this help

I think the low band (Channel 2-6)in your tuner is not working. This could be in the tuner itself or in the band switching circuits. Possibly she deleted the low channels or locked them out. Stargazer
