Searching for a TV station is unsuccessful - you can do that
If your television no longer finds channels, there can be several reasons for this. These tips usually solve the problems:
- First check the antenna cable: Is it connected correctly and not damaged? Is the cable in the correct socket? Replace the cable as a test to ensure that the cable is not defective.
- Try a manual channel search on your TV. To do this, you have to use the arrow keys on your remote control to search through the different frequency ranges.
- If you are using a satellite receiver, make sure that it is correctly connected and set up. In addition, the satellite dish must be correctly aligned so that you can receive channels.
- If there are further problems with the reception via cable, contact your landlord or caretaker, as there may be a defect in the socket.
- You can also try resetting the TV to factory settings. However, all settings will be lost. You can find this option in the settings of your device.
Alternatively, you can watch your films and series online. We compared some of the most popular video portals.
