  Megan AlvarezAug 19, 2025
  If your Insignia LED TV remote control isn't working, ensure the power cord is correctly connected to a power outlet. Also, make sure there are no obstructions between the remote and the sensor on the TV's front. Ensure you point the remote directly at the sensor. Check that the batteries are installed correctly and replace them if necessary. The supplied batteries are wrapped tightly in clear plastic, so make sure that you have removed this plastic from the batteries.

  Ashley LopezAug 25, 2025
  If your Insignia LED TV has a good picture but no sound, try the following: * Increase the volume and make sure the sound isn't muted. * Ensure headphones are not connected, as this disables the TV speakers. * Verify the correct audio mode is selected. * Check that the audio cables are correctly and securely connected to your TV. If you are using an antenna, the digital channel signal may be low. The audio cables you are using may be bad, so try a new set. Also, ensure that the antenna or cable TV is connected correctly and securely.

  Rebecca VargasAug 28, 2025
  If your Insignia LED TV has no power, ensure the power cord is correctly connected to a power outlet. Unplug the power cord, wait 60 seconds, then plug it back in and turn on the TV. Other devices may be interfering with your TV. Try turning off one device at a time to determine which device is causing interference. After you have determined which device is causing interference, move it further from the TV to eliminate the interference.

What to do if my Insignia NS-50D400NA14 picture quality is good on some channels and poor on others?
- M
  Michelle JonesAug 30, 2025
  If your Insignia LED TV picture quality varies between channels while the sound remains good, the problem may stem from a poor or weak signal from the broadcaster or cable TV provider. If you connect to cable or satellite TV without a set-top box and experience poor picture quality, 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.

- T
  Tyler NelsonSep 2, 2025
  If your Insignia LED TV screen displays only snow (noise), try changing to another channel as the station may be experiencing problems. Make sure that the antenna or cable TV is connected correctly and securely. If you're 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.

  If your Insignia LED TV has a dark, poor, or no picture (but the screen is lit) while the sound is good, try switching to another channel. Ensure the antenna or cable TV is securely connected. Adjust the brightness and make sure the correct picture mode is selected. If you're 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.
