Tuner is ng. You can check out the repair cost but ......Another option is to buy an external HD tuner and feed that signal to your set via HDMI inputs. Cheaper than a repair.

SOURCE: 8800 Gigaset lights up but won't turn on.

I have seen that problem before, and it is a terminal one, sorry. You can put the batteries in backwards, and it will be okay. However, once it is set in the charger and the phone turns on, thats when the damaged occured. There is a power protection circuit (for surges), but I rarely see them open for this reverse polarity instance. The polarity reversal of the batteries does not kill the display itself (I know I have replaced them to no avail), it kills a circuit driving the display and I see the bad signals coming from the CPU which is a 80 zillion leg micro surface mount which is not cost effective to replace. Needless to say, I have about a dozen or so of them in that condition. You can google Siemens Cordless Telephone repair for repair or replacement solutions.

SOURCE: I have a cordless phone/answering

Make sure your phone service provider is compatible with your home phone. If you contact them they can usually provide you with a list of incompatible phones. Next call your home # see how many rings before your answering machine picks up. Check to make sure message is clear and audible. :Leave yourself a message. Note the time it takes for your message to become retrievable. If there is a signicant delay there might be a equipment malfunction and you should contact phone manufacturer.

SOURCE: Switching from pulse to tone dialing (there is no switch on the base unit)

hold the select button down a few seconds until you'll see a 'tn' on the readout. this sets it to tone. hold it down again and it will set back to 'Pu' for pulse. i figured this out by accident. the losers at vtech never answered my question.

Toshiba LCD TV/DVD 15LV505 lost channels. Rescan = fewer channels. Now in Setup, when I press the remote down-it skips the Channel option. What must I fix/change in Settings to get the Channel option?

Main system control memory IC fault. This is a very small IC; have 8 solder terminals, and can be located very near to the main system control-chroma IC. Check and replace it. Be sure to replace it with the same number printed on it; in all respect. Otherwise, it won't go. http://electronicshelponline.blogspot.com/ Before replacing it, try a reset to this set, and then check.

One station only has lost sound but piture is great. All other channels work fine.

Have you tried retuning the TV? You may need to do a Full Factory Reset tuning rather than just a rescan.

Rescan simply looks at the place holders where the old channels were stored and refreshes them. A Factory Reset (A.K.A. Shipping Condition) wipes the channel memories and starts again fresh.

One Station only no sound but great picture. The additional digital channels with that station work fine.

Some of the channels have moved. So your TV might be picking them up differently. You need to do a Full Factory Reset tuning rather than just a rescan.

TV works fine on analogue however won't work on digital even when re scanning. When it happened the television froze and then wouldn't work. Now all is has is "no channel available. Please scan" do you...

Hi,

Power the TV off and uplug from the mains, now remove the aerial, now press the standby button the TV, now plug the mains back in and switch to a DTV channel, wait 5 secs and then put the aerial back in whilst still on that channel, now rescan.

If that didn't work, reset the TV to factory defaults and rescan again.

Thanks

Trouble tuning in empty dtv channels

Just go to the main settings. You will see an "autoprogram" option. Select this and it will scan all available channels and delete non-airing channels
