27" MAGNAVOX W/ CHILD LOCK ON- NO REMOTE!

I have a 27" magnavox tv and the original remote is broken. Recently hit child lock on mistake through the tv buttons. Now cannot turn TV on. Tried to buy a universal remote but unable to get TV to respond. I have tried it on other TV's in the house with the power off and had no problems. Also opened up the tv to see if there was a reset switch inside but again no such luck. Is there any way to remove child lock so I'm able to use my tv again? Not much help out there for this problem. Any suggestions would be helpful! I have the same problem, Icannot turn my TV on because I lost the remote

My magnavox tv has no remote and it has child lock how to unlock?
Use this web link http://www.m4c.magnavox.com/cgi-bin/dcbint/cpindex.pl?scy=US&slg=AEN&cat=TV_CONVENTIONAL_CA&sct=TV_LARGE_25_29_SU&grp=TV_GR&session=20090602164521_68.190.209.25&ctn=27MS343S&mid=Link_UserManuals&hlt=Link_UserManuals to go to the Magnavox website and view a copy of the owners manual on pages 23 & 24. It will explains how to change the setting of the lock with the front panel controls. If this does not work for you you can call Magnavox customer support at this telephone number 1-800-705-200. Give them the model number of you television and tell them the problem you are having with the child lock.Locking you out of the television operation.I hope this information helps you with your problem.

Child lock
you will need your original remote control and go through the menu to unlock it. find your original remote control by typing in your TV model number in the search on www.replacementremotes.com and your original remote will pop right up. very easy to use.

Child lock
I called Philips Magnavox to be sure because i have the same issue. Yes you do have to have the original remote and they do not sell it directly from the manufacturer. I was given a website from the rep that I spoke with so that I could buy the original remote. It is www.andrewselectronics.com and the part number is 996500015582 and the price listed is 47.37.

27" MAGNAVOX W/ CHILD LOCK ON- NO REMOTE!
On those particular Magnavox TV's you have to use the original type of remote to power it back on then un-lock the parental lock. It is a bummer that nothing else will work. Here is a link to purchase a replacement remote.. http://www.electronicadventure.us/Merchant2/merchant.mv?screen=prod
