Top 20 Philips 20PT6441 20" TV Questions & Answers

It will be very difficult to operate Philips brand TVs, without its remote control. If you wish to buy a genuine remote control, contact the authorized service center, or authorized dealer. If you wish to buy a universal remote control, you should first make sure about the number of digits in the set-up code, for the device you have. For example: some brand sets will have four digits in its set-up code, some of them will have three digits, and so on. There are devices that need even a single digit or 2 digit or 5 digit codes. Check how many digits code your device has to synchronize with. It is so easy to check, just enter any digit from your remote control, when the set asks for code. See, if you're entering Zeros, repeatedly, when the set asks code, and the set allows you to enter only 3 Zeros, means, the set-up code to your set should have Three Digits one. Now visit the sites I've linked here. Both the sites have set-up code list, and set-up procedure to many popular brand remote controls. Check it, and find out which brand remote control have setup codes to your device, and buy that one according to availability. Keep in mind; when you buy a universal remote control, it will have setup code list, and setup procedure along with its catalogue. Never accept a remote control, with out this document. See the sites by "Mosaic" view; which will make surf easy. http://electrohelponline.blogspot.com/ http://electro-medical.blogspot.com/

replace the memory of ur unit, if not you should look for the power source of the memory and hang it off by removing the lead make sure that it does not contact the board.

use the remote control, sometimes its the combination of the manual push button on the tv and the remote, or hang off the power supply of the memory

Hello
Philips sets use a four digit code to control the v-chip. The override code for Philip sets is 0711, although it may say "Incorrect code" the first time to trick you. If "Incorrect code" is displayed, simply enter 0711 again. To use it hit the MENU key to get to the menus. Go up or down until you reach AUTOLOCK or SMARTLOCK, depending on the model, and push the "right arrow" key on the remote. Enter the override code, and enter it a second time if it says it is incorrect. Once in the AUTOLOCK or SMARTLOCK menu, go to BLOCK, and push the "right arrow" key. Go to BLOCKING OPTIONS and press the "right arrow" key. Go to MASTER DISABLE and press the "right arrow" key so that it says "MASTER DISABLE ON". The v-chip is now reset. OK.

PHILIPS 21HT3252/41 TV 3,1,9,7,5,3and pressing mute button didn\'t worked PLEASE HELP ME

If you have a schematic diagram of the power supply you would have to check for the feed back circuit which comprises of an error amp and an optoisolator check around that circuit and change any faulty component that should solve the blinking condution and thus will bring on the power supply

You need to remove the back and check for a blown fuse, and if you stick a new one in and it blows too, then you probably have a shorted horizontal transistor that is mounted on a heat sink near the fly back transformer, and you are looking at about 100 on repairs if taken to the shop.
