Why Does My Element TV Beep When I Change Channels?

Ever wondered why your Element TV beeps when you change channels?

The most common reason your Element TV beeps while changing channels is that the Audio Feedback feature is activated. It can also be caused by loose cables, broadcasting issues, or external devices connected to your Element TV. The beeping can also come from defective Element TV speakers or other internal components.

This article has everything you need to know about your Element TV beeping when you change channels. There is also some information on how you can fix this issue, so read on for more detailed information.

Why Does My Element TV Beep When I Change Channels?

Your Element TV beeping when you change channels could result from the enabled Audio Feedback feature.

For instance, your Element TV features built-in Audio Feedback, which includes Video Description and TTS (Text-to-Speech). TTS (Text-to-Speech) is a speech synthesis tool that converts text into spoken voice outputs. This enables visually impaired people to hear digital content as they cannot see or read.

When the TTS feature is activated or enabled, your Element TV’s Audio Guide will read out on-screen items or beep when you change channels. However, this should not worry you as it is a DIY issue you can easily fix.

How to Turn Off the Audio Feedback on Element TVs

Here is a step-by-step guide to disabling the Test-to-Speech Audio Feedback feature on your Element TV;

Step 1: Open the main screen of your Element Tv using the remote control.

Step 2: Scroll down or up and select Settings.

Step 3: Click the right arrow button and select Accessibility and Languages.

Step 4: Tap the right arrow button and open Test-to-Speech Audio Feedback.

Step 5: Toggle the Audio Feedback to OFF to disable the Text-to-Speech feature on your Element TV.

Step 6: Click “Done” and return to the main menu.

You can now try changing channels and see if the issue is fixed.

Other Reasons Why Element TV Beeps While Changing Channels

Here are a few other reasons why your Element TV may be beeping while changing channels:

1. Beeping noise due to loose cables

You might have connected external devices, such as DVD players, external speakers, or other audio-video devices, to your Element TV with cables.

If any of these devices are inserted in the wrong port or are loosely connected to your Element TV, it can cause a beeping sound when you change channels.

2. Beeping from the Element TV speakers

Your Element TV beeping while changing channels can also result from noise from the TV speakers.

You can check this by muting your TV speakers while changing channels. If the beeping stops, the TV speakers could be the possible culprit.

So, you should have it checked and fixed by a technician.

3. Beeping from other connected devices

Your Element TV beeping could also be caused by one or more external devices connected to your TV. You can check this by muting your TV speaker while changing channels.

If the beeping continues, then the connected devices could be the cause.

You can then disconnect all the external devices connected to your Element TV and see if the beeping stops while changing channels.

Now reconnect the external devices one by one. This will allow you to find the device that is causing the beeping.

4. Beeping noise from the channel you are changing to

Sometimes, the program or channel you have switched to could be the reason for the beeping noise from your Element TV.

You can check this by simply changing to other channels. If the beeping stops, then it could mean that there is a broadcasting issue.

5. Beeping noise from defective TV components

The beeping noise can also be caused by some defective components inside your Element TV. If this is the case, you should consider contacting the Element TV Service Center and request them to send a technician to resolve the issue.

Any of the above issues could be why your Element TV beeps when you change channels. You can troubleshoot and fix it or call a technician to resolve the issue.

Why is My Element TV Making a Clicking Noise?

Your Element TV making a clicking noise could mean an issue with the power supply. Although the clicking noise may not damage your TV, it cannot be very reassuring. For instance, it can be a common problem for some Element TV models. Thankfully, you can have it checked by your dealer or technician to have it repaired.
