No picture on any channel: Fetch troubleshooting

This article will help if you have no picture at all on any Fetch channel. Before you start, make sure your Fetch box is turned on and you have selected the correct source / input channel on your TV.

If you can receive picture on some channels, click here for more troubleshooting help.

The power light on your Fetch box will be blue when it's turned on and red when it's on standby. If there are no lights showing on your Fetch box, see our Troubleshooting for Fetch box won't turn on.

Make sure the HDMI cable is securely plugged into the HDMI ports on your Fetch box and TV. If you are using Analogue Composite Video cables, consult your Quick Start Guide for assistance.

To restart your Fetch box, turn the power to the box off for 30 seconds then turn it back on.

If your TV has additional input ports (such as a spare HDMI or AV port), try connecting your set top box via a different port. You may need to select the new input on your TV by pressing the Input/Source on your TV or Fetch remote control.

If this resolves the problem, you have identified an issue with the ports on your TV. Consult your TV user guide or manufacturer’s support site for further assistance.

If you have alternative cables, use them to connect your Fetch box to your TV. Consult your user guide if you need assistance changing the cables.

  • If this resolves the problem, you have identified there may be a problem with the original cables
  • If the problem persists or you don’t have spare ports / cables, proceed to the next step

If you have another TV, try connecting the Fetch box to it.

If this resolves the problem, you have identified there may be a problem with your TV. Consult your TV user guide or manufacturer’s support site for further assistance.

If the problem persists or you do not have a spare TV, contact us and we'll help you out. If you're not with Optus for your Fetch TV service, please contact your service provider for further assistance.
