Question posted by lauren33908 on January 16th, 2012
My Screen Went To Fuzz And There Is A 'no Signal' Message.
I checked the cable box on another TV and its working fine. Is there a pinhole reset for the TV? The tubes have to be working because there is fuzz and a no signal message and the channel (3) is displayed. But for some reason it wont recieve the cable signal. i have messed with every available setting on the set and the cable box. I contacted comcast to no avail. Just wondering if anyone has any further ideas?

there is no reset pin hole. It sounds like the TV tuner has failed, so you can hook you the cable box through the aux inputs. you should follow the directions on page 18 for the Satellite box (just use the cable box instead): http://www.helpowl.com/manuals/sony-kv32fv16-operating-instructions-a9a1fb6.pdf
To repair the tuner is probable in the $150 range, this procedure is only the cost of a three wire patch cord. Note: if the cable box has the five wire available (HD cable box) then use them instead for a better picture.
