I had a similar problem with my rpi zero w, the lights would light up and the monitor would not display a "no signal warning" it turns out the image on my sd card was for a rpi 2 b+ make sure your image is the right one.

  • Firstly thanks for answer. I downloaded latest rasbian and flashed on sd card with "rufus". Is there another distro or version of rasbian for pi zero? I think all of the change is made by dtb file between different boards. And interesting thing is it is working with VGA adapter. – Emre Anıl TERZİOĞLU Jan 4 '19 at 8:21
  • If you are talking about Raspbian then there is no specific version for any Raspberry Pi model. Raspbian runs on all RasPis. – Ingo Jan 4 '19 at 11:33

  • This is happening to me, although I can SSH in to the Pi Zero W, and it displays on a 3.5" display attached to the GPIO pins - just nothing on the TV, although my Atomic Pi displays just fine with the same cable :-( – Mawg says reinstate Monica May 6 '20 at 12:31

    @MawgsaysreinstateMonica I solved the issue with using better hdmi cable. – Emre Anıl TERZİOĞLU Aug 5 '20 at 7:54
