TV problem

[Kwasaki]

JVC flat screen TV has HDMI1 and HDMI2.

With computer plugged into HDMI1 can get internet up on screen OK without having to do anything. 

 

Tried plugging into HDMI2 cannot get any response just want to confirm thats it's a fault with the TV's HDMI2.

With my old LG tv I have to select HDMI 2 using the input button on the remote control.

As said you have to change the input source using remote to switch between ports.  Many people use both ports at same time (video/cable/security etc).

You need to change Source to HDMI2

On the remote a list comes up AV etc HD 1, HD2 switching to 2 no response so i guess something wrong with tv.

Thanks to all.

May or may not work but could also try power off and on the TV and/or try another HDMI cable.

Do not have that brand but on all I have used the inputs are listed as HDMI.  But inputs can fail (or require a magic touch) so may well be set fault.  Is this a new set?  There are switch's available if you need multi inputs to one HDMI.

If the suspect HDMI port has been unused for a while it may have a build up of dust etc on it (I experience this often in hotels where I might be the first person to conneect in a while).

 

Sometimes breaking and remaking the contact a few times will break through it, sometimes it'll need cleaned out with a little brush.

I was having a HDMI issue with my NUC.  Changed cables and "taa-daa"  all good.

Buy a good/best quality HDMI cable, buy a can of electrical circuit cleaning spray, spray out the connection on the tv wait a bit for the freon spray to evaporate and plug in and see. Oh power off the tv at the set and wait a few minutes then turn on the set at the tv again.

Simple test to ascertain whether the HDMI2 is functional is to plug the current HDMI1 lead into HDMI2 socket. Make sure MDMI2 input is selected and see what happens.

If still no input then it's probable that HDMI2 is faulty.

Try the same trick with the other lead into HDMI1 to confirm if that lead is working ok.
