Child Locked TV and Remote

Hi

My Son was playing with the remote this morning, and somehow locked everything.

I have a blue screen with a red padlock up. I have tried a few things, but nothing works.

Please help

    Same situation but with an NU-TEC.

  • Lizzyg Apr 01, 2008

    My son has locked the WHOLE thing.



    I have tried what you said already, but even the menu button on both remote and tv are locked.

    Yep, same here - no response from any button except when turn off with remote, get a flash of program before it shuts off. Thanks for giving it a shot.

Padlock, blue screen

Somehow in handling the remote control I pushed a button or combination of buttons and now have a blue screen with a lock symbol in red in the top left hand corner. I've tried turning the tv off, and unplugging it, as well as a combination of buttons on the remote, but it still is there.
What do I need to do to remove the lock?

Blue screen and red padlock

It sounds to me like a child lock function, which is usually what the screen + padlock is on TVs. Usually your original remote would have a button / sequence to unlock the mode. If you still have your original remote, look for a child lock button or refer to your remote manual (and/or TV manual for the child lock feature) to unlock the mode.
