      Adam BrowningAug 13, 2025
      If your Freeview Receiver displays a 'Tuning failed', 'Database empty' or 'No signal found' message, it could be due to several reasons: * The antenna cable might be disconnected, or the antenna might be damaged or misaligned. Check the cable connecting the receiver to the antenna. If necessary, consult a qualified technician to inspect the antenna alignment. * You might be outside of the digital signal area. Contact your dealer to confirm.

      If you can't receive digital reception after moving your Freeview receiver to another room, the signal feed may be coming through a distribution system that reduces the digital signal. Try using a direct feed from the antenna.

      Barbara SellersAug 25, 2025
      If your Freeview Receiver is not responding to the remote control, there are several possible causes: * The receiver might be off. Ensure it is plugged in and turned on. * The remote might not be aimed correctly. Aim the handset directly at the front panel of the receiver. * There might be an obstruction. Make sure nothing is blocking the front panel. * The batteries might be inserted incorrectly. Check the direction of the batteries in the remote. * The batteries might be exhausted. Try replacing the batteries in the remote control.
