Navy Chief Navy Pride Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Yesterday I was watching my TV....Kids started fighting (again) so I had to leave the room for a minute. When I came back there was nothing but static coming out of the speakers. The picture was fine, the cable was fine, and the DTV was all fine. Here we are a day and a half later and still nothing but static. The living room TV is the only one effected in the house. The TV is a 57" RCA (not HD). If anyone can give me some insight on what the problem may be and how to fix it I would much appreciate it. I plan on getting a new HDTV before the football season starts but can't now due to vacation plans back to Tonawanda in July. Thanks again.

Fan in San Diego Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Are you using a sound system or just the tv sound ? If a sound system make sure the TV's sound is turned off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jukester Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Do you have audio output jacks from the TV (I'd be very surprised if you didn't). If so, try connecting some external speakers to the audio out via audio wires. If you get sound, then you know it's a problem with the internal speakers.

apuszczalowski Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Did you hit the top of the tv with your fist or remote? How about the sides? That usually fix's TV's for me Seriously I have no clue, Just board waiting for my nightshift job at McDonalds to start Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve There's your problem right there....Seriously though, I would try the external speaker option as a first fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Realist Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 I have a surround sound system and that happened to me a couple of times. A horrid noise was doming from the speakers. I just rebooted the cable box and it came back fine. I'm not sure if this would do anything for you since your sound is coming directly from the TV.
