How do you reset a Hisense TV?

You can reset the TV picture and sound by navigating to Settings > System > Advanced system settings > Factory data reset. Read the information on the screen to make sure you understand what the reset process does. To continue with the reset, press PLAY/PAUSE three times in succession.

To factory reset everything, navigate to Settings > System > Advanced system settings > Factory data reset and check "Factory data reset".

Hisense TV Blink Codes and What They Mean

The status light on your Hisense TV turns on and off and blinks in different ways depending on the status of the TV:

1. When the TV is on (active screen) and the status light is off, the screen will inform that the TV is on.
2. When a screen saver (active screen) and a status indicator are off, the screen tells you that the TV is on.
3. If the TV is turned off (no power) and the status light is off, the TV is not connected to AC power.
4. If the TV is off (standby) and the status indicator lights up, the TV is connected to the power source and ready to use.
5. If the TV boots from North and there is a slow pulsing flicker until the update is complete, then the TV is doing something.
6. The status indicator turns on/off once upon receiving the command from the remote controller. That means the TV has received your command.
7. Two quick blinks, pause, repeat, and the TV lost connection to the network: This means that the TV was connected and paired with a Roku account and now has no network connection.
8. Slow blinking until the TV turns off: This means the TV is doing something.

How to fix a flickering Hisense TV screen

If your Hisense TV screen flickers, it could be caused by interference. Check for nearby electrical devices or tools causing interference. If this is the case, turn off the devices and remove them from the TV.

Hisense TV turns on but has no picture

If the TV is on and there is sound but no picture or the picture is black and white, try the following troubleshooting steps:

• Press the power button on the remote to put the device into standby mode.
• Make sure Color is set to 50 or higher.
• Try different TV channels.

Hisense TV Horizontal lines on the screen

To solve this problem, look for nearby sources of interference. If so, turn it off and remove it from the TV.

If the TV turns off immediately after turning it on, it may be because it is in standby mode. Sleep can set the TV to automatically switch to standby mode.

Repeatedly press the standby button to select the appropriate sound mode and the clock will show you the remaining time before the TV enters standby mode.

Hisense remote control sensor does not work

• Make sure the TV is still on and working.

Hisense TV flickering black screen

If your TV screen is flashing black, it means that a cable box, satellite box, coaxial cable, or HDMI cable may not be working properly or may need to be reset. Once you have verified that the connections and cables are correct, restart the TV to see if the problem is resolved.

Try these stages to refine them:

1. Unplug the TV for 10 minutes, then press and hold the power button on the TV for 60 seconds.
2. Plug it back in and turn it on.

If this reset doesn't work, try these instructions:

• Press and hold "vol" (+) and "menu" on the side of the TV.
• Hold down the button as you press and release "Power" on the control panel.
• Release the hold after 10 seconds.

How to use Hisense TV without remote control

To turn on the TV without the remote control:

1. Move closer to the TV until you are in front of it.
2. Find the power button. Depending on your TV model, this button is usually on the bottom of the TV, but some TVs have the up or down power button on the bottom or top of the TV frame.
3. Press and release the power button. The TV turns on.

If you have a Roku TV, you can use your Roku player without a remote by downloading the Roku app on your smartphone or tablet. Please note that your TV must be connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your smartphone for these steps to work:

1. Download and install the Roku app. It is available on Google Play Store and Apple App Store.
2. Open the app and follow the instructions on the screen.
3. Then tap Devices. If this is your first time using the app, you'll need to tap OK to allow it to find your Roku devices.
4. Then select your Roku device.
5. Then tap on the "Remote" icon.
6. You can now use the remote control app to control your TV.

Troubleshooting No Image

• If you get a black and white image, unplug the TV first, and plug it back in after a minute.
• Check the color settings if the image is black and white
• If you connected an external source to the TV and you don't get a picture, check the correct output connection on the external source and the correct input connection on the TV. Make sure you have made the input mode selection of the correct input signal.
• If you are using an external antenna and the picture is temporarily blurry or cut off, check the orientation, position, and connection of the antenna. Adjust the direction of the antenna or reset or tune the channel.

Troubleshoot no sound.

If the picture is normal but there is no sound, try the following troubleshooting steps to resolve the issue:

• Check the volume settings. If the volume is low, try to keep it loud enough to be heard. You can use the volume buttons on the remote control or on the TV.
• Make sure the silent mode is set to "on". Silent mode turns off the sound from your TV. If mute mode is enabled, you need to set it to "off" to get sound.
• If you connected an external source to the TV and there is no sound, check the correct output connection on the external source and the correct input connection on the TV. Make sure you have made the input mode selection of the correct input signal.

Troubleshooting No signal problem

First, make sure your TV is set to the correct source or input. Try changing the source or input to TV, AV, Digital TV, or DTV to see if the problem goes away.

If incorrect input is not the cause of the No Signal error, it is most likely related to antenna or configuration issues. To troubleshoot receiving problems, try these instructions:

• Check if the UHF antenna is misaligned or blocked.
• Check if the plate is misplaced or blocked.
• Look for loose connections from the antenna cable to the TV.

If there is still no signal, try unplugging and re-plugging the power cord to your Hisense TV.
