  If you experience little or no sound from your LG Receiver, it might be due to several reasons. First, ensure that the equipment connected via the audio cable is set to receive the DVD signal by selecting the correct input mode on the unit. Also, check if the audio cables are securely connected to both the speakers and the unit. If the problem persists, the audio cables might be damaged, and you should replace them with new ones.

  David JimenezAug 20, 2025
  Your LG Receiver remote control might not be working because you are not pointing it directly at the unit, it's too far away, there's an obstacle in the way, or the batteries are flat. Try pointing the remote directly at the unit from within 23 feet (7m), remove any obstacles, or replace the batteries with new ones.

  If your LG Receiver isn't playing a DVD or CD, make sure a disc is inserted correctly with the label or printed side facing upwards. The disc might be unplayable, so check the disc type, colour system and regional code. If a parental lock is enabled, enter your password or change the rating level to allow playback.

  If you hear a humming noise while playing a DVD or CD on your LG Receiver, the disc may be dirty; clean it with a soft cloth using outward strokes. Alternatively, the unit may be too close to the TV, causing feedback. Try moving the unit and audio components further away from your TV.
