This is probably a really stupid question but, yonight, trying to switch on my TV all I get is "Weak or No Signal  Check the antenna cable connection"

I have checked the cables, all seems normal. What now?

Do you get the normal picture on the TV if you plug the aerial directly into the TV bypassing the box?

 

Is it all stations or just some? HD stations are more prone to fluctuations than SD ones.

 

If not you may have a damaged cable or aerial,bot you signal my be compromised . Check you local transmission by looking on Freeview website or digital TV site to see if there is any work going on on your transmitter 

 

It could just be atmospherics which would normally clear in 24 to 48 hours, but if it persists then you could try a retune, but you could lose any stations you currently have.

 

If it's an aerial issue you will need to consult a local installer for a solution 

 

In case it's the box, what model do you have?

From the 29th of March our TalkTalk Community will move to peer-to-peer support and the TalkTalk team will no longer be here to support with queries. Don’t worry we still have plenty of ways to reach out if you need to speak to TalkTalk directly. For more details check out the link here: How to contact TalkTalk Broadband - Help & Support.

I checked all the cables and seemed all OK. As a "what if" I tried an alernative HDMI cable. Yay, all now working!!
