SOURCE: I have a Sony KD-28DL10U tv with integrated

I have the 32" version. I found out, accidently that to reset the TV, with the TV on, pull the mains plug slowly, you should hear a pop, leave for 5 mins and plug back in, I won't take any responsability for damage so you will have to do only as last resort. I also found it is a problem with 1st and 2nd generation digital sony's. Mine was "upgraded by sony but to no avail hence the need for a HARD reset. It doesn't actually reset anything, just clears a frozen tuner.

SOURCE: Options to auto-tune or manual re-tune are greyed

Problem solved!!
According to the Sony website I needed to get a software download in order to fix this problem. I found out how to do this from the manual and realised that the re-tune menu I was looking at was for analogue only. The pictograms onmy remote control are a blurred but the manual helpfully provided a picture showing the correct program "info" button (next to 0) which has options to look at other things, including a "detailed set up" menu on the blue tab, which provides options for software download and re-tune of digital channels.
Incidentally, I discovered that my TV model was not quite as quoted above - it is KD-28DX200U, but expect the same process works for other oldish models.
