Skipping channels - LG 42LH40 LCD TV

Try having the TV tuner run the process of re- indexing / re- discovering the channels
That should immediately tell you if the receiver is having a problem
If it cant connect to known good channels then there may be a failure on one of the boards
Othwise that should fix the problem and allow access to the skipped channels

Favorite channels are programmed sckipping some. Find on the tv the settings and reset the channels and you can see them all again.

Run a full channel scan through the menu and the rest should show up as well.

Some TVs also have ability to manually turn off channels, which makes it easier to navigate when using UP and DOWN channel buttons. Instead of going to every single channel available you skip the ones that have been marked for skipping. It's a useful feature, but can get you in trouble.

Once a local hotel called us to repair 5 of their TVs and what turned out was that someone has played a joke on them and disabled all channels from the menu.

Turn the power off to the receiver and let it run its course. It should download a new program guide at this time. Another thing is to make sure you are on ALL SUB on the guide as opposed to a favorite self created guide.Thanks for using Fix Ya.

is the channel flipping always happening at set intervals? Or, just randomly? Try replacing the batteries in the remote. If that doesn't work, start looking for other sources of IR(infrared). In some rare cases, direct sunlight on the TV will get it to do strange things.

can u select the channels using remote commanders up and down arrow keys ? if yes problem in front pannel;s touch butten keys and replace all the keys

Problem with channel skipping has rectified itself. I simply unplugged the set and and started over with remote intructions on signal and channel setting. The tv was also turning itself off and on, this also has ceased. Thanks, hope I don't need you later.

try a reset on it. push and hold the power button down for 5 or 10 seconds untll it goes off. it will then "acquire" satellite and reload program info and then it should work right.

I have the same problem with comcast HD, completly useless talking to them, they do nothing to assist

please install your motherboard cd
