Question

What can cause the TV to only display "No Signal"?

Community Answer

It is likely because your TV is not receiving a digital antenna signal. Check your TV settings. You should have an option to change the signal input from an antenna to cable, USB, HDMI, etc.

Question

Why is my TV buzzing?

Community Answer

Plasma TVs typically make a soft buzzing sound. This is normal. It's caused by the electrical charges that are used to create the images on the screen. The buzzing, however, should not be so loud that you can hear it when the volume on the TV is set at normal levels.

Question

An ad is frozen on the TV and I can't change channels, what should I do?

Community Answer

Completely reboot your box by holding the power button for ten seconds to shut it off. It it will not turn off, unplug the power cord from the power outlet for 15 seconds, then plug back in and wait.
