No tv signal

When I turn my TV and 360 box on just saying no signal tried all the usual things to rectify it but still nothing different cable switching on and off again

    Is there an error code alongside this "no signal" error? If it's being generated by your TV360 box, there should be. If not, it could be an error generated by your TV to report no incoming signal on the selected HDMI port.

    What are "all the usual things" you've tried thus far - you've not said so no-one else knows!

    Can you post a photo of the error message? I suspect it's from your TV rather than TV360, and the advice for dealing with each varies.

      There is also a TV fault in my area that might be the cause but I can't confirm that till I can speak to virgin media

        I agree with japitts that the area fault isn't anything to do with your problem or there would be more people posting about this, if the light on the box is changing from red to white (or pinkish white with my box) and you don't get the starting up message then it does sound like the video output has failed. If the box was booting up Ok and it was just live TV you would be able to press the Home button and see the menu.

        Still waiting for your picture to clear.

    You can use the "edit post" option to avoid the need for multiple short replies.

    From your latest posts, it sounds like your TV360 box is potentially not giving a video output, and this error is your TV reporting no HDMI signal on the selected input. If you restart your TV360, does your TV display the "welcome" & "Starting up" screens?

    Without seeing the details of the area fault, I strongly suspect it's completely irrelevant to your issue.

       restarted multiple times and still this and as I did say I have changed tvs and still this no welcome screen and on other TV says no signal so to me it's from the box to virgin media

        Do the "Welcome" & "Starting up" screens appear when you restart? This is the TV360 doing a video-output self-test.
