Do you mean you are actually hearing a cable channel but get no picture?  
Or are you hearing noise?

A couple good suggestions have already been posted, including picture 
adjustment and doing a channel scan if you can get into the menu.  Try 
setting the tuner to cable TV and doing a channel scan first.

You could also try a VCR or DVD player connected to the AV inputs if the 
set has any and switch it to that input with the channel selector or 
remote to see if that brings in any picture.
