STOP!

The unit has a fault on its power board and sustain board.

SOURCE: I got a Hisense TV

Hi there,

Unfortunately, I'm going to need some further information from you to answer your question. I think the model number you provided is actually the model number of the Hisense remote control and not the model number of the TV. The correct model number should be located on a sticker on the back of the TV. Please can you check this and correct if necessary. I'm not saying you are wrong, but I cannot find any existence of TV model number EN-30505A.

This is where it gets a little confusing. If that is the model number of the remote control then you should be able to disable the childlock by pressing the lock/unlock button on the remote . . .

Please can you reply to me with the following information:

1. The model number of the TV;
2. Do you have the original Hisense remote and is it working?
3. The approximate age of the TV (to assist with identification in the absence of a model number);
4. The brand and model number of any remote you are using with this TV;
5. Is there a MENU button on the front or side of the TV and does it open the on-screen menu?
6. Is there a MENU button on any remote you are using and does it open the on-screen menu?
7. How did you engage the childlock? (if known)

If you can let me know these details, hopefully I will be able to solve your problem. You should note that some Hisense TVs can only be unlocked with the original Hisense remote. It is possible to lock and unlock them from a universal remote, but unlocking them this way is dependent on remembering which buttons were pressed to lock it. Obviously this isn't possible if it was done accidentally/unknowingly!

Regards,
BElectric.

SOURCE: on an approximately 19" Hisense

Hello
You must ahve its original remote control to ulock your Hisense TV. If you haven't one, try to gather it from any of your friends or relatives who owns the same model TV; just to unlock it. After unlock, you can use universal remote control to operate it.
To unlock do the following.

[1] Press the "Menu" button on the remote control. The TV menu will appear.

[2] Tap "Channel ^" or "Channel v" to scroll the cursor between the menu options. Select "Function" and press "OK."

[3] Select "Parental Control" and press "OK." Enter the TV's password when prompted.

[4] Choose "Off." The parental controls will switch off and the TV will unlock.

OK.

Sleep timer shuts off picture but not the sound

It's possible that the power outage could have affected the TV's settings, including the sleep timer function. You may want to try resetting the TV to its default settings to see if that resolves the issue. To do this, you can usually find a "reset" or "factory reset" option in the TV's settings menu.
If resetting the TV doesn't work, it's possible that there is a software or firmware issue with the TV. In this case, you may need to contact Hisense customer support or bring the TV to a repair shop for further diagnosis and repair.

Try to reset the set electronics to factory defaults. There maybe a reset button on the set itself or if you contact the mfg they can tell you the procedure to do this.

Was watching live tv on my seven day old hisense 65k700uwd tv, when I pushed the you tube button the tv went completely blank (no sound or picture) and the remote wouldn't work

Cheryl, unplug, wait 10 minutes plug back in, if this does not reset it, return for refund or exchange.

My Hisense lcd is lock.

This is how I got mine to work after weeks of struggling just trying to find a new remote (hisense is really hard to contact....).
1) Turn the TV ON. unplug the tv while still ON 2) hold down the "menu" button on the side of the TV and plug it back in. keep holding it down. the TV should turn on with the menu popping up. use the Vol <> keys and Channel <> keys to navigate the menu. go to the Vchip menu, and play around. I'm not sure what ultimately worked, but i changed the Vchip password to 1111, turned the reset menu to "on" and played around with the ratings settings (turning most of them to "u"s etc).
I went through this process several times and finally, the black background behind the menu turned to static. I played around with the channels, and the TV was unlocked. I turned the TV off, and then on again, and the channels showed up normally (no static). and it was no longer locked. I had to do the unplug thing several times, and was getting really frustrated looking for an "unlock code" in the manual (it just says press the button on the remote. so it was not really helpful).
But really, once you can just get to that menu you've made some progress, and just keep playing around with it until something works.
Best of luck!!
