Can't find dvd channel on my tv...

Dear Experts, =D

I was just given a Zenith [model #SY2569X] without the remote. I bought a 4 function RCA Universal remote for it [# SRU3004WM/17]. I managed to auto program the tv channels. While I am able to play VHS on channel 03 on the tv, I cannot find a channel that will allow my Phillips [#DVP3960/37] dvd player to be viewed.

The dvd player instructions say to press the '0' on the remote and then press the channel down button until I see a screen that displays the dvd player background and then program it. But that screen doesn't show up on any particular channel. My old tv let me play it on an AUX channel and the vcr played on channel 03 and the rest was local tv stations. We don't have cable tv nor dish tv...just rabbit ears...no HD converter box yet, either. (the defective one I bought needs exchanging)

It would be great if you can tell me how to set up a channel for this Zenith tv and Phillips dvd player.

Thanks for your time in this matter.
Dee

SOURCE: can't access channels 3 and 4

Open main menu and select manual program. In this option check skip on/off option is there. Otherwise select autoprogram the channels are automatically stored, after completing autoprogram TV displays program edit option. In that you can choose your needs.

SOURCE: I am stuck on channel 2

some tv's default to channel 2 after being unplugged.since it is a older tv ,the buttons on the remote and the tv maybe worn down.on the tv itself try pushing the buttons down a liitle harder. if you have aux or line in/video inputs,scroll down on the channel button to log into a aux channel for the dvd player.as for the remote try buying a cheap universal remote to see if that works.
good luck

G25819TK RCA tv (1991) aux jack problem

Without looking further you may need the Factory remote not all functions may be accessable using a "Universal" Ha,Ha,Ha remote.These Universal remotes have been problems in my line of work for years,Best idea is when you get a new tv pick up a cheap basic functions remote & use it for everday normal Vol./Channel/Power et. & keep the orig.for things the universal won't do

Lost remote for zenith H27F56S,so I bought rca universal remote, and have all the codes but still wont work to set up channels.I have followed the set up process to the "T" yet it still will not...

Sometimes the setup procedure might be not right. Check it with an other code. If you wish to get more setup codes, three digits, four digits or five digit ones, check this link. Pull up older posts. Setup code list and setup instructions to some popular model remote controls are given. Zenith TVs should synchronize with codes to RCA. Check the number of digit codes, that the TV asks. If it is a three digit one, and you are entering a four digit code, the TV won't synchronize.

Zenith TVBR1322 9 In. Combo universal code

Universal remotes will be missing key functions in these units.

Zenith (and for that matter most brands) do not make these units--about 4 companies make most of them.

Your best bet is to try to locate an original remote--Zenith(LG) or Google the model number "original remote" or even search EBAY.

Direct tv on universal remote

For this type of problem you will need to call the RCA customer support at this telephone number 1-800-645-4994. Give them the model number of your remote control and ask them for assistance with your problem. Thank you for using FixYa and have a nice day!

Hi, I have a RCA 27" console color tv without the original remote. It has the RCA cable ports. I bought a Toshiba DVD and it needs the TV to have an external channel which can only be set by remote? Is...

After market remotes only work the most basic of functions - ie., volume channel changes , on/off. They do not get into menus, change inputs, etc. If you can change channels on the console tune it to 3 or 4 and get an rf adapter for your dvd player outputs, set it to one of those channels, and connect to tv antenna input. Ir will work but the picture will not be as good as it can be.
