Hi Gudrun - You didn't say what you previously tried. Find the TV setting Menu (usually on the remote) then locate "Channels" there should be an option to Scan for channels. Select scan & wait until it's complete. If you are using an antenna, make sure it's securely attached to the TV.
I have had to move my indoor antenna to get the same channels. I suspect the broadcast signal has changed direction.

SOURCE: can't get the channels to enter into the channel list

A lot of the " auto channel scan " etc. need a certain signal strength. you could have too meny tvs,equipment or anything connected to the "signal giver" that is sucking the signal strength.Not just turn off ALL connections to signal but disconnect the antenna 'input' to any equipment (sometimes people connect cable wires to radio receivers for stronger & better signals.)
You could have a open circuit to the input of the equipment in trouble.If you know how to get inside (with out killing yourself) connect an antenna directly to the end of the line of the intanna input INSIDE of the TV. if the signal comes in and the tv 'autoscans' and locks channels, then you have a open wire leading into the circuit.
p.s. BE CAREFUL!!, IF YOU don't know how or what you are doing.........DON'T DO DAT !! [that]

SOURCE: missing channels

You could have problem in SSB board the one that has tuners on it to replace ssb borad 253.00 plus labor Repair cost 445.00 use your external jacks for video see if you have the channels then. No more then 2 missing channels verses no channels and SSB cost,I would leave it alone. But if you need any of the boards to this set call 1-800-648-6657 UED

SOURCE: 27F520T RCA Truflat, won't scan for channels, auto or manual, only blue screen, no channels on tv

You need to replace the microprocessor. GoodLuck there is 52 pins to unsolder and resolder a new one. The price for the chip may bee about $35

My 43” onn is telling me to execute auto channel scan when I turned it on

yes so press the menu button , once the menu pops up scroll down to channel then click the right arrow then scroll down to anything meaning auto scan channels then click on that and then put your remote down and in a few minutes it will finish scanning and it should close menu and go straight to one of the scanned channels, once this happens you should treat your tv normally and go through the channels until you find something you want to watch and so on, your done. If this does not take care of your problem feel free to get back to me asap. THKS!

The first question is, how do you connect the Dish Sat to the TV?
If by coax cable, then let the TV scan and find the output channel of the receiver (ie. Channel 3). If you are using HDMI or other Input Input ports, you should be able to skip the auto scan and just choose the corrent input port. If all else fails, hook an antenna or coax cable to the TV and allow Auto Scan to complete its processes. You should then be back normal and can then select the input port.

The tv keeps saying run auto channel scan

I have run the auto scan many times and it never finds any channel. I found that you have to put it on the HDTV, PC, AUDIO channels in order to watch or connect anything on the TV. Try doing that.

Did auto channel scan and still unable to watch tv

If you are going straight from the wall to the tv you most likely will not get channels. You will have to come off of the box supplied by your cable provider. If you are coming off of a box currently then you need to make sure you tv is tuned to the right channel and then use the provided remote from your service.

Good day!!!

Sorry but I can't see any previous questions from you to my email but anyways lets proceed to your problem..

If you are watching TV shows and the picture is ghosting kindly try to play a DVD movies or anything that having video on your DVD if the picture is fine when you play a DVD movies your TV is in good condition you don't have to worry about..If the picture is fine when you play a DVD let me know and I will give you next step of troubleshooting..

However if you play a DVD but still picture is ghosting there something wrong with your TV..

If you are using DVR then when you back to TV it become ghosting..It is possible that you hit the wrong button on remote..you can also try to restore factory settings to correct all possible wrong set up and also to to auto scan your TV to get back all channels clearly..

Hope it helps..

regards,

Truetech tv

I had the same problem with my TruTech TV after i recieved cable from Time Warner Cable. We aslo thought it was the cable but it was obviously the TV, so my boyfriend went to the options and went to change password and put 0000 or 1111 and it asked to pick a new one so he just put 0000 again as the new password then he went to V-Chip and it asked for the password and that takes you to parental control and then you just true it off and your offical back in business and youll be able to watch anything you want now

Not able to scan stations

I don't understand why you would bother to scan channel when you have directv or dishnetwork???
directv or Dishnetwork required their units in order to watch any channel,which means:
A. Depending on your TV setting,if you use RF connection from your basic directv to the tv,you would have to leave the TV on Ch.3 or Ch.4.to view the rest of the channels,you have to change it from the directv or dishnetwork box. You are NOT able to scan the rest of the channels from the TV,bottom line!!
If you have comcast or your local cable provider,once you have activated,you could use the RF signal coming out from the wall plate straight to the tv and go to TV auto programming,it will auto scan the available channels for you.
Don't waste your time on directv.
If you are thinking about recording from your BASIC directv or dishnetwork box, you would connect SAT. signal from the wall plate to the directv box,then use composite video/audio output and connect straight to your VCR/DVD player under composite video/audio input. Now you could record the viewing channel to the VHS.
Good luck!
