The problem when there is no sound occurs for many users of Samsung TVs and brings negative emotions. These cases are not isolated, such a nuisance can last for years, and the unfortunate owners of equipment do not know how to deal with it.
We offer simple ways to return the TV to normal sound. In 80% of cases, the proposed actions help to cope with the task.
The silent device is first rebooted. To do this, unplug the plug from the outlet and keep the TV de-energized for a minute. In the off state, you must press and hold the “Power” button for half a minute. After another minute, connect the device to the mains. Such manipulation in a gentle mode will reboot, the sound should appear.
This method, for all its obviousness, is forgotten by many, namely, disconnecting from the power source can force the “brain” of the TV to be updated. The decisive factor here is a fully sustained pause of 1 minute. It is necessary to note the time by the clock, and only after 60 seconds have elapsed, turn on the current.
In the off state, press and hold the power button on the TV control panel for half a minute, and not on the remote control! These similar-looking buttons have slightly different capabilities.
There will be a complete loss of residual electric charge in the elements of the TV, and then an absolute reboot of the program. When simply turned on with the remote control, this function cannot be started; it only works by mechanically pressing “Power” on the front panel. When you start the power on, the sound will work again.
It was mentioned that in most cases this helps, but 20% of the problem is complicated for reasons that a simple reboot will not fix. For such situations with the absence of sound, the following algorithm of actions is useful.
Unplug the cable from the socket on the back side, let the TV stand in a de-energized state for one minute or more, then put the power cord back in its original place.
Always use moderate physical force when inserting the cable plug into the recess. After that, make sure that the connection has taken place: the connector does not move, when you try to pull it towards you, it is firmly held in the socket. The quality of the contact of the contact parts affects the performance of the equipment and the stability of the power supply.
Reconnecting the cable jack and pressing the “Network” button on the TV’s dashboard will bring it back to life, making the sound come on.
A smart TV, like any electronic device, cannot work correctly without regular updates. From this, all sorts of tricks happen to him, among which the missing sound is not the last problem.
