Question about GE 46GW947 46" Rear Projection Television

TV has a good picture but the sound coming out is nothing but static.

The picture on the set is working fine. Only static comes out of the speakers. The sound/static cooresponse to the volume movement. Any advise would be appreciated.

The cable box was the problem. Unplug your set and disconnect your cable box for 5 minutes. Let the system reset. I ended up replacing the cable box.

I had this same problem a few years ago, a repair guy came out, and told me my TV gets stressed, and u unplug it from the wall, wait 10mins, and plug it back in, and the sound works fine...I have to do this once every 4 or 5 months...They said there was nothing they could replace to fix this..

I am having problems with our daughter's tv. The volume isnt working now even though the picture is fine?

Have you looked at the headphone jack? Sometimes a set is left plugged in and sound wil not come out of speakers.

Also, look at cable box. It can sometimes have a separate volume control.

last, if you plug in a set of headphones and you hear sound, pick up a pair of inexpensive powered speakers and use those.

I have a 42 inch Hitachi plasma tv that is making a very loud static noice coming from the internal speakers. It stays at a contstant very loud volume unless I completly mute the tv or turn the volum

Based on what you have tried if a buzz or loud static via the speakers you have something wrong in the audio output circuit of the set--problem here is that circuit may be part of the Main board that processes all signal---a look inside---following the speaker leads back would lead you to that board.

A simple thing to do to narrow it a little (you may have done this) is with sound all the way off put your ear to the internal speaker--hear anything at all like a deep hum?

Depending on age of set and cost of the board likely bad it may or may not be a do it yourself repair.

Sony 60 in LCD edge LED TV: Hooked up new TV to a cable box - have HD picture but no sound. TV speakers say on. Makes sound when TV channel is changed (static). But nothing when input cable (via HDMI) is...

Your cable box most likely has a setting for audio HDMI such that HDMI sound is turned ON etc. rather than standard audio. Also check the TV settings for HDMI audio being set to ON. This should be a simple fix. HDMI audio usually is just a user setting adjustment and nothing more. Somewhere in your on-screen menus you should find the place to adjust HDMI audio.

White Noise Sound

Your problem is somewhere between the tuner and video detector circuit. The signal entering your TV carries: video,red color,and blue color as well as sychronizing pulses for color and horizontal and vertical deflection ( actually vertical sync. is derived from horizontal sync.) along with burst pulses to synchronize the color. After all these, the sound is an fm signal entwined with a pilot signal for stereo audio. WHAT a mess! After the audio passes through all this, it is detected and sent to the audio processor. If any frequency has drifted away from it's value then you loose the sound. SO... your problem could be in any of the tuned circuits or in the audio processor IC (chip). Any component changing value could creat this problem. Most likely the audio processor IC. You'd need to have the set checked out by a tech to find your problem. Stargazer

No Sound on TV

In the menu option, see and make sure that the speakers are turned on and that the Mute is off. Also if all that is good then unplug the set for a good 24 hours. If that does not help, and your not experienced at repairing solid state electronics, please seek out a local repair person to trouble shoot this for you.
