If you have the PlayStation game console installed using the supplied A/V cable, please make sure that the cable is installed into the back of the PlayStation game console in the audio and video out ports. The colors should match yellow to yellow, red to red, and white to white. Please make sure that the cord is inserted firmly.
Next, follow the cord to the back of your television or VCR. Make sure that these ends of the A/V cable are connected to the audio and video inputs. It may be necessary to have your television or VCR on a specific channel in order for the picture to appear. Usually, a button on the remote control must be pressed in order to activate this specific setting. Some common names for this button are: Line, Input, Video, Aux or Auxiliary, Tuner or TV/Video, or you may need to set your television or VCR to channel 00, 90, 91, or 92. If none of these buttons are marked on your remote control, you may wish to refer to the instruction manual for your TV or VCR or contact the manufacturer of that product directly.
If you are still unable to receive a picture, you may wish to try another set of A/V cables, or try to connect your system to another television. If this situation persists, the PlayStation game console itself may need repairs.

This pin is inserted into the port marked RFU DC out, located on the back of your PlayStation game console. When the RFU adaptor is connected properly, you should not be able to see any of this pin.
Next, make sure that the other end of the RFU adaptor is connected to the coaxial port on your television set. Be sure that the channel selected on your television matches the channel selected on the RFU adaptor. If you need to change the channel on the RFU adaptor, locate the channel selection switch located on the end of the RFU adaptor connected directly to the PlayStation game console.
If, after following these steps, you still do not see a picture, attempt to connect the PlayStation game console using the supplied A/V cables, to ensure the system is functioning properly. If you still do not see a picture after following all of these steps, the PlayStation game console itself may need repair.
