    Our TV stopped working this morning. We followed your tips, ordered everything off Amazon and we are back in business! We spent $25 and the picture looks great. Thank you for your video and saving us from having to buy a new TV.

    Vince, I was having the "no signal" problem on my LG tv, searched You Tube for an answer and came across this video. I decided to try it since all the needed gear didn't cost much. It worked pretty much like you said and this solution will bridge the gap until I can save for a new TV. Thanks for your help, it got me out of a jam.

      That's the same thing I'm getting no signal.
      My cable is good (HDMI). I THOUGHT it was the graphics card.
      But that is also good.
      So I'm leaning towards
      The HDMI port.
      This is a great video.

    I've got an older TV where the HDMI ports just went out and found this while searching for other possible options. I already knew what you were describing here, but it was good to see someone had made a video explaining it. I may be using my now defective TV in a similar fashion in a less used area, via an HDMI to VGA adapter. Good work and I bet you're helping a lot of people!

    This is great. I "inherited" a 7-year-old 50" TV with all broken HDMI ports and I was about to get rid of it. For 25 bucks it's worth giving this workaround a try.

    Very clear concise instructions... easily found everything on Amazon and ordered it. It came to about $25 US Dollars. Way cheaper than buying a new TV and now I will have 3 HDMI inputs with remote. Love it. Thank you! I will let you know how it worked out.

    Thank you so much Vince... your fix worked like a charm! The HDMI ports blew on my LG 55LX6500 and I got zero help from LG customer service on how to fix or work around the problem. LG even denies there is a problem with the HDMI ports on this generation of their TVs. Their only suggestion was to call out a service tech which made no sense for an 8 year-old TV. Ordered all the parts you suggested thru Amazon for CAD$ 37.30, followed your installation instructions and within 5 minutes I had my Cable TV Gateway and my ROKU back operating on the TV. Again, thanks for the great advice!

    Thanks! Great video. I had this same thing happen and did almost the same as your video, except took the smart kid from Walmart's suggestion to run a vga computer cable (male on both ends) to connect from the adapter (plugged into the cable box) up to the back of the TV- works great. Then I ran an audio cable (with two RCA jacks on one end and 8mm jack on the other) from the cable box to the back of the TV. In this whole process I figured out another method that would probably be easier and cheaper- Amazon has HDMI to RCA cables that would also deliver hi def.

  • @SweetmanPHOTO
    @SweetmanPHOTO 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    If you choose the male hdmi with female vga AND the audio output, you can avoid purchasing one more adapter. I found several on Amazon for $8.00 even including a mini-hdmi to usb and the 3mm audio. Works wonderfully. And the hairdryer solutions you read about? My electrical engineer friend says it's NOT the chip that is fixed by the heat but the micro cracks in the solder in the board, that expand and reconnect once heated. This way it's permanent.

  • @nexion2406

    I use a HDMI to VGA adapter for my PS4 to my monitor and it works fine at 1080p the only complaint that people may have is that the maximum resolution is 1920 X 1080 and 60Hz I think and although most people including myself don't care about the 60Hz maximum refresh rate as anything above is kind off unnecessary especially if it is being used on a TV.

I decided to use the hdmi switching box and remote (exactly as the one you show in this video) to switch between my set top box and an Amazon Fire stick into the working hdmi port. It works perfectly with the set top box but no display arrives at the screen when switched to the Firestick, regardless of which of the 5 outlet channels I plug the Firestick into. I wonder if you have any idea why this fails? Or any tip that may help?

    WOW, I might try that. 2 of my old LG tv HDMI connectors came away from the PCB. so I now have to use a 3-way HDMI splitter on the one remaining HDMI connector. When that one gives I will try your method to keep my 3D TV longer.

    Use the component video cable for the 720p or 1080i wich is full hd also

  • @PC4USE1
    @PC4USE1 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I think the difference between the video quality might be that VGA is 1080I rather than HDMI 1080 P. It is the interlacing that causes the difference ,no doubt. Great work around,though.

    For you Xbox users, I may have a potential solution to this issue. On the back of the Xbox console itself, there is an HDMI input and an HDMI output. Make sure it is plugged into HDMI output. I had the same issue myself and realized that I had plugged it into the input instead of the output and now everything works great! For you Xbox users, I recommend trying this before what was in the video

    Haetch DMI Also most people use the audio in/outs for other equipment the switch and the tv only allow one input at a time, so your surround system must use whatever the tv connection is. can be done but anyone that needs this video to figure this out wont be able to do it on their own

    You could also get a HDMI to component converter the RGB cable you can't get 1080P I don think but you can get 1080i witch is close enough

      Yes. HDMI to Component adapters are cheap from Amazon. Worked fine on my 10 year old LG LED TV when all 4 HDMI ports died. Only problem is that there may be only one or two Component connectors on the TV.

    Somehow all 3 of our HDMI ports stopped showing video but they still have audio. We don't know what happened & thought maybe we pressed a button on one of the 3 remote controls we have that messed it up. All 3 of the HDMI inputs say No Signal when we press the Input button even though 3 of them have devices plugged in. We have a Cox Cable Contour DVR, a DVD player & a Roku stick. If our audio still works do you think this is the fix we are going to have to try? Also, thanks in advance for your time & help!

    this is good info and may use. My issue connecting a brand new Fire stick to a friends TV. TV has 3 HDMI Ports and none recognize the Fire stick or my older Fire TV. But the TV has an HDMI feed for cable TV and that feed works in all 3 HDMI ports so the ports ate not bad just do not recognize brand new fire stick or older Fire TV. Connected brand new Fire TV to bedroom TV and worked fine. My use this setup as the 55" TV in living room is older and has those ports to work around the no signal issue. Just really confused how and HDMI Port would recognize 1 feed and not another. Thanks again
