• Check all cable connections are finger tight.
• Make sure your TV is on channel 3 or 4
• Try to reset your Digital or DVR box. To reset, unplug your Digital or DVR box
from the wall outlet and wait at least 30-60 seconds before plugging it back in.
If problem only occurs on one TV:
• Play a DVD or VHS to see if the picture is still dark.
If you have multiple TVs and the problem occurs on all TVs, please call TCA @ 712.930.5593
