Check that the cable isn't loose by wiggling it around at the connection to the monitor. It's possible that the backlight could be failing on the monitor, if you see a very faint image on it.

Hello there,

Please follow the instructions below to restore your TV to factory settings:

1. Switch the TV on
2. Press MENU on the Hannspree remote to open the on-screen menus
3. Use the DOWN arrow to highlight FEATURE
4. Press the RIGHT arrow to enter the FEATURE MENU
5. Use the UP/DOWN arrows to highlight RESET DEFAULT, then press OK
6. Confirm that you wish to reset the TV then press OK.

After a few seconds, all user settings and stored channels will be deleted and the TV will return to the setup/installation screen.

7. Switch the TV off and disconnect the power.

The next time the TV is connected to the power and switched on, the setup/installation screen will appear and it will look the same as the very first time you switched the TV on.

Hope this helps - if you have any difficulty or need further assistance, please reply to me from within this page.

Regards,

There seems to be a minor discepancy in the model number vs size but you can get to free manuals at the links below.
To the cable, in the change to digital the analog tune can no longer "sort" the frequencys but with the small digital boxes placed on each set, normal cable splitting works fine. Just remember the splitter needs to be new enough to carry the frequency.

Path: wall >splitter >each TVs digital box >respective TV See how that works

if you are using a scart lead...........
these do go faulty.........
swap it with another if you have 1....
cheers

You can connect over HDMI connection or via the composite cables that would also be known as A/V. Those are the red, white, and yellow cables.

The backlight controller is most likely faulty. It could be bad capacitors again, or the inverter board itself may need to be repaired - possibly faulty inverter(s). Try shining a torch close to the screen and see if you can see anything on the screen.

I had the same issue there was no code for tv call hannspree support number and they will walk you through doing auto search

try a search engine by the card code. You cannot find it by the tv model because the same card can be used in many brands and models. Open the tv inside and read the power board model or serial etc. write down everything and start google. Perform a perseverent search. :)

If an LCD TV has sound but no picture do the following:

Use the source button to ensure that source is not set to the wrong input.

Try unplugging power cord for ten minutes, to ensure it is not a setting problem.

Check all the video cables at the back of TV.

Check Light /Color settings.

If problem persist and does not depend on external receiver or settings, then it is likely an internal fault.

If it has sound but no picture then one of the following parts is faulty, and must be tested and replaced:

The inverter is the high voltage board that provides variable power to the backlight lamp. This is the most common. When inverter is faulty you can get no picture, or a very dim picture that can only be seen by pointing a torch light with a 45 degree angle on the LCD surface from very near distance.
The inverter must be tested by reading voltages with a multimeter.

The LCD ribbon cable/LCD display and connectors.
This is quite uncommon, but happens. If the TV had been hit or moved the LCD cable may have slipped out, or the LCD connector may be damaged.

The LCD controller board.
This is the board that controls the video signal, it is difficult to test, as there is need to read determined values on IC pins. To test this board you need to purchase a service manual and follow the troubleshooting diagrams on service manual.

Input/Output Signal boards.
This are the boards where you connect the video and audio cables, if a signal board is defective, then you may get no picture on particular inputs located on faulty board.

If under warranty contact the manufacturer ringing the number on the user manual.

If you want to repair at your own expenses, just locate any good qualified repairer.

No pictures and no sound (black screen but no sound)?
It can be the power supply module or the main board, you need to troubleshoot it, it will need parts for sure.

If they are all coming from the same physical source (please clarify) there is little you can do other than to look in thge audio menu of the TV and switch on auto volume if your particular model has that option.
I hope I have been of help but please do not hesitate to ask if you have any further questions.
I appreciate your vote if you appreciate my reply.

there's no faulty parts on your unit but sure that you have a dry joints on the sound amplifier section.

Look for a qualified technician to re-solder for a dry joint on the said section and it will fix the problem.

If you have knowledge in soldering then open the back panel of your tv.
Then observe first because you have to pull-out some connector from the main board.
Remember that anything you pull-out will be back to their position as you finished resoldering.

Try to trace the connectors of your speaker to the main board.
It is connected to ic which have a heat sink.That's the sound amplifier ic.
Find the cold solder around there then resolder it.
You can try the tv, if you hit the cold solder then intermittent sound will be cured.
Remember that before you try turning on the unit be sure that you returned the connectors to its original position. gud luck buddy...

If the capacitors are bad, it may be better to replace them IF you know how to repair electronics.

I found a code after a while searching on the Internet it's 0206 and it seemed to work for me have a go with that and see if it works.

It is may be in safety shutdown/restarting mode due to bad power supply or it detects shorted circuits in the power supply, inverter board, etc. You need to do in-depth troublshooting.
If you are going to DIY and have proper tools, electronics knowledge, and know safety precaution then please read on: Basic LCD monitor and TV troubleshooting guide: http://www.fixya.com/support/r5093881-lcd_flat_panel_tv_troubleshooting_guide http://www.fixya.com/support/r6150077-basic_lcd_monitors_troubleshooting http://www.fixya.com/support/r7406380-tv_training_manuals Failed TV and Monitors: http://s807.photobucket.com/albums/yy352/budm Learn about bad caps: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor_plague Parts: www.shopjimmy.com Capacitors kit: http://lcdalternatives.auctivacommerce.com/Default.aspx he can make you a set of caps.

On your remote press Menu and look for settings. Try to find a Time/Date option. Sometimes if you have a universal remote this will not work and you must manually press the menu button directly on the monitor near the power button.
Hope this helps

Is the source button on the remote near the volume button? If so I suspect a faulty remote.
or ...Are you using a universal remote or the original?
I hope I have been of help but please do not hesitate to ask if you have any further questions.
I appreciate your vote if you appreciate my reply.

Please clarify how you are feeding the TV, is it from the aerial (antenna) or cable, or using a scart lead etc. It sounds like it is not seeing the video input but is seeing the audio. If it is from a scart lead the lead may be faulty, or if some other route then please clarify.
I hope I have been of help but please do not hesitae to to ask if you have any further questions.

Hi rinkejus.

This link is the user manual for your tv. If you already have it, don't bother downloading it. Follow page 75 and 76, which describe the audio settings. Play with the equalizer until, hopefully, you find a setting you are happy with. You can also play with the sound effect, as music tends to "broaden" more readily than speech. Also, if you are set on surround, most of the speech will be in the centre channel - which isn't there because it requires an external speaker.

From what you describe, you don't have a fault of any kind, just the features of your tv are having an undesired effect. Good luck. Please vote 4 hands if this was useful.
