    LG 42PC5D No picture through antenna/cable in?

    It just stopped showing picture one day. Every other connection works though except that. Whether I plug in antenna for ota or a vcr to test still no picture.

    I searched around but most issues I see people have is "no picture but have sound" Mine either has black screen or snow and it shows the digital channels station name but black screen

    Thanks for any help I know it's an old plasma tv

    Stupid question, but have you tried autoprogram yet? I made that mistake once and thought my cable was out, then customer service told me to try autoprogramming it again. If you've already done that, then probably your tuner or tuner circuit.

      Well I don't know what happened but I hooked a vcr and it plays fine now but it still won't show any tv picture when an antenna is hooked up even though the antenna works on a newer tv. It always shows the antenna signal as bad. It still knows the tv stations but still always black picture.

      Is it still a part issue? Thanks

        T-con suspect issue. Both ribbon cables no picture. One ribbon cable ok. (58pus8545)
        by Tr0ll
        Hi guys! I realized you have a lot of knowledge here so i am hoping you could point me in right direction with my odd issue.

        The Tv is a Philips 58PUS8545/12, it had no picture but working backlights.

        Original T-con:
        Opened the Tv and tested to unplug one ribbon cable at a time. With this test i could see that i got fine picture on both halves as long as there was only one ribbon cable connected, with two connected picture were gone.

        First replacement T-con:

        I thought it might be t-con and ordered new t-con from china(supposedly tested)...

        SAMSUNG UN55KS9000F picture fades then distorts into vertical lines after 20 seconds
        by JJAAMM
        This was my main TV for the last 6 years. I'm not inclined to throw out a $2600 TV so quickly so I'm trying to investigate the issue.

        Problem
        TV was disconnected from power for 6 months during construction. When I plugged it yesterday picture was fine, after 30 seconds it dimmed then started developing horizontal lines, picture then starts to ghost vertically until it degrades into vertical streaks. TV always displays a perfect picture when cold. I can unplug TV for 5 minutes and plug it back in and picture is restored for 20 seconds. I can also keep it in standby mode...

        Pinout of TV antenna cable
        by spleenharvester
        Trying to bring the antenna cable down from my roof to my living room, it's currently not wired to anything. But instead of a coax cable, I found two of these 4-core monstrosities. I'm guessing the two light green wires are common to eachother, as are the two dark green wires - and each 'pair' is either signal or shield. Any ideas?...

        Samsung TV model UE50TU: rebooting, backlight, sound, but no picture
        by TR103
        Hi, I have a Samsung UE50TU with:
        - sound and backlight, but no picture
        - when it arrived, it had a picture for a few seconds
        - it keeps rebooting
        - without ribbon cable between the two panel boards, it does not reboot but I have no picture
        - without cable between mainboard and lcd panel, it does not reboot (but obviously i have no picture)
        - when i try a tape fix, its keeps rebooting, unless I tape off pin 1 (the innermost pin). In that case it does not reboot but I have no picture.

        - without cable between mainboard and lcd panel and with a jumpered...
