How do I connect stereo speakers to receiver for TV audio?

[Tom]

How can I connect basic stereo speakers to my receiver for TV audio? I have an older mitsubishi receiver. I have connected the speakers to the receiver and I've connected the TV to the receiver using input/output jacks using the video component jacks on the back of the receiver. I have the right component selected (Video/AUX) but I'm not getting sound from the speakers.

What could be wrong? How do I fix it?

You have to put the RCA (red, white yellow) cables audio out of your tv and audio in in the reciever, if you did that, then maybe you have to change a setting on your tv, switch it from the internal speakers.
