  ogoldenSep 12, 2025
  If, after performing an Auto Channel Search on your Insignia TV, there are no channels, contact your cable or satellite TV provider, as reception can vary by channel depending on the broadcast power level of a given station. Make sure that the antenna or cable/satellite TV is connected securely to your TV. Try replacing the cable between the antenna/cable or cable/satellite box and your TV.

Why is the picture quality poor on my Insignia NS-40D40SNA14?
- S
  Sarah Lee MDSep 9, 2025
  If the picture on your Insignia TV is poor, make sure that the room is not too bright, as light reflecting off the screen can make the picture difficult to see. If an S-VHS camera or a camcorder is connected while another connected device is turned on, the picture may be poor, so turn off one or more devices.

What causes after images on Insignia TV?
- C
  Chris ArnoldSep 7, 2025
  To prevent after images from appearing on your Insignia TV, avoid displaying a still image, such as a logo, game, or computer image, for an extended period of time. This can cause a permanent after-image to be burned into the screen. This type of damage is not covered by your warranty.

  If the Insignia TV remote control isn't working, ensure the power cord is properly connected to both the TV and the power outlet. Check for any obstructions between the remote and the TV's sensor. Point the remote directly at the sensor. Remove any plastic wrapping from the batteries and ensure they are correctly installed. If needed, replace the old batteries with new ones.

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.

  If your Insignia TV displays only snow (noise) on the screen, try switching to another channel. 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.

Why is the picture quality on my Insignia NS-40D40SNA14 TV good on some channels and poor on others?
- M
  Michael MarquezAug 31, 2025
  If your Insignia TV shows poor picture quality on some channels but good quality on others and the sound is good, the problem may be a weak signal from the broadcaster or cable TV provider. If you connect to cable or satellite TV without a set-top box, you may need to install a set-top box to improve signal reception and picture quality. Contact your cable or satellite TV provider about upgrading to a set-top box.
