Now one my one TV it works fine and display is all good.

The other TV doesnt display at all.

any suggestions or ideas why its only working on the one TV ?

One TV will be a 50Hz TV and the other will be 60Hz. The PS2 will work on either setting as will the 360, but you need to set it up in the System settings to work on one or the other. You'll need to work out which TV is which and set it up accordingly.

Go for the 60Hz TV as a lot of games are now not compatible with 50Hz.

Having said that, I'm assuming both TVs are CRT ones and not one CRT and LCD/Plasma as the LCD will probably be running in HD which means you need to toggle the switch on the component cable.

I reckon that one of your TV's will be HD ready and the other won't.

The cable which runs from the Elite to to TV had a little box on it where you can switch between HD and normal.

Make sure it is on the right setting for each TV.
