SAP change with no remote

I am also getting spanish on some channels and no sound on others on my SONY Trinitron XBR 36" KV-36XBR450 and I assume it is the SAP setting but I do not have the remote for it. Is there ANY way to fix it without the remote? Or do you know where I can get a remote?

The set is definately in the SAP mode, which will have some channels in spanish and some channels with no sound at all. You might be able to get an inexpenxive universal remote and go through the menu to return the audio setting to stereo, but if that does not work then you can order an original Sony remote by model number from Union Electronics at 800-648-6657.

I think that my TV soney braiva xbr has an issue with SAP but some ch. are in spanish some do not have sound How do i reset this tv?

Press MTS/SAP on the remote (under the number buttons) to go between the 3 options of STEREO or MONO or AUTO SAP. Not all channels will have SAP (secondary audio program). Selecting stereo should eliminate any secondary audio.

My sony kv-36xbr450 quit responding to the remote (rm-y184). I put new batteries and the remote lights work when pushing buttons. Is there a way to reset or check the remote ?

it is most likely the remote receiver inside the tv. you can verify this by using a universal remote. if you cant get it to work the receiver is bad.

KV-36XBR450 input selection problem

Go into the menu on the TV and go to the far right under setup. Select "video label" then select "program". A menu will come up listing the 7 inputs. Make sure that the input you are using for your PS3 is not set to "skip". While you're there, set any of the other outputs you're not using to "skip". Your TV/Video button will only cycle through the ones that aren't skipped. Have Fun!

No sound on my Sony Triniton - video has SAP on it

YOU ARE IN SAP MODE. IF THERE IS NO SECOND AUDIO PROGRAM ON THE STATION YOU ARE WATCHING YOU WILL GET NO AUDIO. SWITCH SAP TO STEREO OR MONO. SOME REMOTES HAVE A MTS BUTTON ON THEM.

Sound

SAP is short for "second audio program" and is a way to send a second audio track along with the main one. In many areas stations use SAP to provide Spanish or other language sound for movies and other programs. If you have SAP turned on you don't know it until you tune to a channel where it's being used, and then you hear the other sound. Just turn SAP off using the remote control or TV menu.

KV-36XBR450, FD Trinitron WEGA

Hello maymet,

This sounds like the HV protection circuit is cutting off the TV due to a high current event in the set. This could be a problem in the High Voltage section of your TV (Horizontal output transistor, Integrated High Voltage Transformer, and y of the deflection components, and or the CRT in cases of shorts).

I would suggest that if you do not have a background in electronics, you should have an experienced TV technician troubleshoot and repair this problem.
This is due to the nature of the dangerous voltages that are present in the television.

I hope this helps,

Thank you,
