To get the sound back on your LG TV, follow these steps:
1. Start by locating the Settings menu on your TV. You can usually find it by using the button labeled “Settings” on your TV remote. If your remote doesn’t have a dedicated Settings button, you can press the Home/Smart button and then look for the Settings icon.
2. Once you’ve accessed the Settings menu, navigate to the Audio or Sound options. The exact name of this menu may vary depending on your TV model.
3. Within the Audio/Sound menu, look for an option called “Sound Out” or a similar term. This option allows you to choose where the sound is outputted from. Select this option.
4. You should now see a list of available sound output options. Look for an option called “TV Speakers” and select it. This will ensure that the sound is played through the built-in speakers of your LG TV.
5. After selecting “TV Speakers,” exit the Settings menu and test if the sound has been restored. Play some content on your TV and see if you can hear the audio.
If following these steps doesn’t solve the issue, there are a few additional troubleshooting steps you can try:
1. Check the volume level: Press the volume up button on your TV remote or the volume buttons on the TV itself to ensure that the volume is not set to mute or at a very low level.
2. Check the audio cables: If you have external audio devices connected to your TV, such as a soundbar or speakers, make sure the audio cables are securely plugged in and the correct input is selected on the external device.
3. Power cycle your TV: Sometimes, power cycling your TV can resolve minor issues. Turn off your TV, unplug it from the power source, wait for a few minutes, and then plug it back in and turn it on again.
4. Update your TV’s software: Check if there are any available software updates for your LG TV. Updating the software can sometimes fix bugs or glitches that may be causing the sound issue.
If none of these steps resolve the problem, it might be worth contacting LG customer support or seeking assistance from a professional technician. They can provide further guidance or perform additional troubleshooting steps specific to your TV model.
Remember, these steps may vary slightly depending on the model and software version of your LG TV.
