Dial it all the way down until it stops buzzing. Then gently turn it up until it just barely buzzes. It takes a light touch to get it just right. It seems to work pretty good. I still occasionally get a false reading but for the most part it is adequate.

I received my replacement about a week ago. I turned on the TV, and there it is again - the buzzing sound exists. That's two TVs, and both are the same. I do admit that the picture quality and everything else is very good. I'll probably return this, and go with another model.

I also use a dimmer and no buzzing sound for me .Make sure the hot and neutral aren't switched (black is hot white is neutral)and the fixcture is properly grounded(green).

hi justin, you might alos check the right output from your source. had the same problem with the tv. albert

Not sure...make sure the wire leads are correctly attached to same color leads on your tv. You could also try adjusting the scan button?

Hi Jeff. Did you double check your connections at the sensor? A typical setup should be --1. Constant (+) power wire goes to the 'L' terminal. 2. 'Both' (-) wires from your power source and your device go to the 'N' terminal. 3. Finally, the (+) wire from your device goes to the 'LOAD' terminal. Also, try to adjust the sensitivity/light adjustment on the device while it's powered off. Then apply power. Hope this helps. Dave

If it chirps every 30-40 seconds, the battery may need replacement. I can't recall if there is any "expiry" date on the detector - is it exactly 1 minute? I suggest tossing in fresh batteries and maybe clean by vacuuming around the detector with a brush attachment. And see if that stops the beeping? I thankfully have not had the chirping problem until after about a year and it was because the battery was weak. Is it all of them beeping at once? I would hardly think all 4 could fail at the same time, but try the obvious approach first. Otherwise, you may have defective detectors or your wiring may be faulty.

Using compressed air, blow out the alarm. Test your battery, it may be low. Dust will accumulate around the sensor. If these suggesting don't work, you may have a faulty detector.

I'm having a problem detecting the signal from my satellite box. It is very slow to turn on and tune the signal. When turned on it goes from the Bravia screen to no signal, audio only, then a flash of the signal then back to no signal then on . I thought it might be the hdmi cable but it's the same cable that was on the previous tv which worked fine. The old tv was a 37 xbr6 which was damaged in shipping.

i have the same "buzzing" sound coming from the vent on the left rear side. not sure if its normal but im going to set up service call to confirm. *update* ive been tweaking the settings and the buzzing seems to go way down if you put the contrast on about 50%, thus throwing the picture quality off. ive decided im going to send this tv back and replace it with the samsung lcd.

Check your programming. Make sure you have the ir/rf correct and devices assigned to the proper rf ports on the reciever.

By now you have probably discovered that the instruction sheet is useless. You can practice detecting RF signals by using your cell phone or microwave oven. This item does detect RF signals is useless for the laser detection. Good luck

Try and replacing the batteries in the receiver. I had to do that with mine after 3 overnight usages with my unit. The batteries that come with the unit may have been bad.

Make sure all batterys are new turn red light away from you push scan button slowly u should receive a signal! !!!!!!

Check connections one might be loose or you hook the hot into sensor might have fried it bottom line recheck your wireing I would start there

Thanks very much to those who offered suggestions. Everything was fine with the wiring. A phone call to a Sony tech resolved the problem, which was found to be my selection of HDMI Passthrough to "ON". As such, the receiver remained partially powered in Standby and resulted in the hum. Re-selecting HDMI Passthrough to "OFF" cured the problem.

I would try a different input, such as a component cable. Something like that happened to my other TV. My house was struck by lightening and it traveled through the TV cable. Destroyed the cable box and the HDMI ports on my TV. It's the only thing I can think of, other than a repairman.
