      Christina GuerreroAug 27, 2025
      If your Insignia TV has good picture but no sound, first increase the volume and make sure the sound isn't muted. Ensure headphones are disconnected, as they disable the TV speakers.

    Why are there lines on my Insignia TV screen?
    • L
      Laura FisherSep 4, 2025
      If you see dotted lines or stripes on the screen of your Insignia TV, make sure that the antenna or cable TV is connected correctly and securely. If you are using an antenna, the digital channel signal may be low. If the signal strength is low, adjust the antenna or use a highly directional outdoor antenna or set-top antenna with a built-in amplifier. Make sure that the video cables are connected securely to your TV. The video cables may be bad, so try a new set. Other devices may be interfering with your TV, so try turning off one device at a time to determine which device is causing interference and move it further from the TV.
