Panasonic remote and volume/channel buttons do not work

Try getting a Harmony remote control. It will operate your tv and anything else you can connect to it. When the TV gets too old to fix, the remote can be reprogrammed for the new TV, so it never gets obsolete. The remote is programmed from their website.

This TV is set up to connect to an external amplifier which that controls the speakers. It has an analog audio output which means you need an RCA audio cable (2 RCA plugs (red and white) on each end. You can't directly connect a set of speakers. The audio output jacks at between the antenna in and the video inputs. Then you need to enter the menu and enter the Audio submenu. Go to the Speakers item. Turn the TV speakers to off and fixed audio out.(The amplifier will adjust the volume.) Use the Up/Down arrows to navigate through the menu options, press enter to enter a sub-menu and the volume up button to change a setting.

There is also a headphone jack which may be compatible with computer speakers. That has a 3.5 mm jack. To use headphones, set the Speakers Audio item to TV speakers Off and variable audio out. (The TV controls will adjust the volume.)


To use a Universal remote to set the audio or modify the channel list, you need one that matches the Menu function of the original remote. You may need to try multiple codes for Panasonic TVs to get the button to work. Some low-end universal remotes may not have the menu button; get a different remote or use the menu button on the front panel of the TV.

To set the channel list, press Menu and select Setup. Go to the Prog Chan option. Then set your Mode in the first option (Cable or Air). Then choose Auto Program to scan all channels or Manual Program to edit the channel list.

The manual for the TV is available at retrevo: http://www.retrevo.com/support/Panasonic-CT-27SL13-TVs-manual/id/275ag210/t/2/ . You will need to enter a code to access the manual. See page 5 of the manual for the input connections (page 7 of the PDF).

On remote you must push the TV button first then the on button to activate or deactivate the TV. Channel or volume on the TV does not need to select anything on remotes.

Trying the same thing. 10650 lets me change channels and control volume but, can't turn it on/off!!!

Try to replace the remote control with a new one. If it doesn't work, then there is something wrong with your TV.

Use the tv remote to put the tv on ch 4. Use the direct tv then to select channel of the direct tv box. The box is broadcasting to the tv on ch 4. Also check that tv is on correct input . Again use the Panasonic remote to select correct input. If this does not work call direct tv for assistance.

1.- Turn off your TV
2.- On the remote control, set the VCR/TV slide switch to TV position.
3.- While holding in SP/EP button, press the code button listed below that corresponds to the brand of your TV
4.- Press TV POWER on the remote control. Once your TV has turned on, your remote is set up to operate your brand
