Call 800-359-9408 for Support, Nothing is more annoying than when your local channels stop working, even though YouTube TV may be the best option for live television viewing. Many customers have complained of unexpectedly losing access to their local networks, including ABC, CBS, NBC, and FOX. It begs the question: "Why are my local channels not working on YouTube TV? Well, here are a few common reasons:
Location Issues: YouTube TV bases its local channels on where you are. If you have moved or traveled recently, the app probably has not updated your home area automatically. You can always update your home area in settings to get access to your local channels again.
Device-specific issues: Some users say that local channels are not available on some devices, and this is more about mobile. Try updating the app or restarting your phone if your YouTube TV local channels are not working on mobile. You could reinstall the application as well.
Licensing or Blackout Restrictions: Some local channels may be unavailable on a temporary basis owing to licensing agreements or sports blackouts in your area. That's really beyond your control, but quite often YouTube TV works out such problems after a little negotiation.
VPN Usage: If you have an active VPN running on your computer, YouTube TV may be blocking access to local channels because it cannot detect precisely where you are located. Disable the VPN and check whether this cleans up the issue.
If, after trying these, you don't get your local channels on YouTube TV, then it is best to ring 800-359-9408 for professional support.
