The first thing you want to check is if the receiver is on - check for green light on front of receiver. Depending on the type receiver you have and your TV model, if it's not an HD TV, put your TV on channel 3 and see if you get a picture.  If you have an HD TV, you will want to go through your input settings on your TV.  Also you should have a cable from the receiver to your TV. See which port the cable is connected; this will tell you the input setting.  I hope this helps.
