LG 42LA620S-ZA TV - constantly displays "not programmed"

Best answers LABEL_AI_GENERATED

Why does my LG TV constantly show "not programmed" and fail to detect devices connected via HDMI?

The HDMI input may be damaged, especially if the TV does not detect connected devices; try another HDMI port, a different cable, and select the correct HDMI input with the LG remote [#20151074] The antenna cable is not the cause of this message [#20150423] The "not programmed" text usually means there are no channels stored, so in TV mode you should rescan and program channels again, while external devices require switching to the proper input source [#20150823]

    Hello.
    The message "not programmed" appeared on the LG TV. You can't connect any equipment (decoder, Xbox) because it doesn't see them. The message as above is displayed on the black screen all the time. The antenna cable is not damaged.
    What does it mean?

    Is the model of this TV a secret?
    The antenna has nothing to do with this message.
    Does it respond to the remote control? Goes to Menu?

  • Select the correct HDMI input with the remote

    The message says that there are no channels and that they have not been programmed. Of course, the antenna must be functional and connected to the TV so that you can search for programs again.
    The TV itself will not see the connected devices. You need to use the remote control to select the correct input when you connect something via HDMI.

    I don't believe it, take pictures of the menu screen. Please provide the model of this LG.
    If you have switched to HDMI, there is no message that it has not been programmed. Antenna connected to TV?

    I will write the model in the evening because I am at work.
    Xbox and decoder connected to HDMI - message: not programmed.
    Could the HDMI board be damaged?

    Of course, the HDMI input could be damaged, common in LG, HDMI1 in my TV, but it seems logical that if one doesn't work, you move to the next one, use a different cable, etc. and, of course, use the LG remote control to select the correct HDMI input.

    Little chance of receiving this information. He hasn't been on the forum since reporting that

It is recommended to check the remote control functionality, ensure the correct HDMI input is selected, and try different HDMI cables or ports. The original poster later confirmed that the issue was resolved, although the specific solution was not detailed.
