Best Answer

Make sure your TV is tuned in to the correct channel, or set to the correct video input, or source.

A) Is there a coaxial cable leading from the back of your receiver to the TV? If so, then try tuning your TV to channel 3, or 4

.

B) Are there composite cables (red, yellow, and white) connected from the receiver to the TV? Make sure they are plugged in, and the TV is set to the correct video input, or source

C) Are there component cables (red, green, and blue) connected from the receiver to the TV? Component cables carry video only. So there may also be a set of composite cables connected to he same input on your TV. These would be used for the audio at this particular input.

D) Or, is there an HDMI cable connected to the TV? This would be a single cable. The ends would be flat, and they slightly resemble USB coupler.

If either scenario B, C, or D is the case, then fist make sure that all cables are connected and the TV is tuned to the correct input.

If your TV says, "no signal' than one of the above resolutions should help.

If your TV says, "searching for satellite signal" than you have a totally different problem.

Why does your gps tell you no satellite signal?

Hi, Most likely it's an antenna problem or something wrong with the `front end` section of the receiver. Then again, it also depends on your location. I wouldn't expect a GPS receiver to work well in a cave or close to large buildings, etc. Hope this helps, Cubby
