I have no remote and cannot access anything but volume and power with my comcast remote. can not even make the tv do an auto scan. Using the channel buttons on the tv only gets me 3 channels. the volume buttons won't do anything either. there is also no menu button on the tv.

The TV has no manual channel change buttons on it? I have never seen this on any TV ever.

SOURCE: The front panel on my SRT2232S Sylvania TV has

This can be due to moisture build up or dirt accumulating with a static charge to induce voltage and so change the customer control panel switchings.
You can try with a good cleaning of the board and panels. Make sure to dry if moisture is seen. Also check for static conducion of high voltage to the control panel that can induce the inputs to work erratic.
if not check the processor section- processor damage- and the board for a possible weakness.

SOURCE: can't turn down the volume on my tv

Hello
The fault is due to the microswitches on the front panel. Just replace all of them at the same time. These switches can be located just behind the front pane push buttons. To access it you have to open the TV, and take out the printed circuit board out.3_1_2012_2_49_48_pm.jpgPictures of two type of microswitches are given here. The shape may differ to tV to tv, but look this. may vary ins size and shape too.3_1_2012_2_50_23_pm.jpg

SOURCE: dont have the remote control cant turn to channel 3 or 4 dont have a menu button

Isn't there a channel Up/Dn button at the front panel of this TV. It should be there. Only Menu button is not. There is Ch up ' Ch Dn and Vol Up ' Vol Dn buttons, beside a power button. Even pressing the channel Up ' Dn button, the channels cannot be changed, check the micro switches inside the TV. Replace them all at one time. You ave to open the TV to access these components.

Comcast dta remote codes for trutech klv3112

I have a Trutech 10 inch under cabinet DVD/TV and needed the codes for the new Digital Adapter that Comcast is forcing everyone to move to. The short answer is that there isn't a single code that will work for what we all need. After much research I have an answer. It's largely unsatisfactory, but its somewhat of a work around. If you use code 10451 you can get the channel up, channel down, the number pad and the "last" button to work. To get volume functional, change the volume lock on the comcast box. To do this:
1. With the TV on, manually set the volume to a medium high setting
2. With the comcast remote, press and hold SET until the red light blinks twice.
3. Enter 9-9-3 (red light blinks twice)
4. Press and release the digit 1 (red light will blink 4 times)

Now, in addition to channel control, you have volume control. I can't do anything about the power button or other functions. However, this at least makes the remote functional.

Good luck to all!

I was able to program my Comcast remote to control the volume of my tv, but was unable to get it to change channels. Is there something else that I should do?

Controlling the TV power and volume is probably all you'll be able to do with that control. The Comcast remotes are meant to be used with their converter boxes, and normally people want to change channels on the box while the TV stays on the box output channel (usually 3, sometimes 4). The remote's channel up and down buttons and number keypad only send out the codes recognized by the converter box. You'll need to fall back to the TV remote if you want to control more than power and volume.

I have a new TV Model 47PFL3603D/F7 and am hooked up to comcast digital box and cannot figure out how to get my comcast remote to regulate the volume. I have the set on channel 3 and everything works...

Usually on a universal remote (after programmed) the volume is controlled by pressing the cable button then adjusting the volume. When you turn your tv on by pressing tv power---then flipping through the channels by pressing cable--channel up or down. The remote (in my experience usually only controls the volume while in the cable mode)

How to program ilo TV w/universal remote to play DVD

I Believe You Can Go To Channel 2 And Right Below Those Channels Are The 3 Video Channels Turn On Your Dvd Player And Go Through Them. If That Doesn't Work Try Looking At The Buttons On Your Tv For A Tv Video. Make Sure You Dont Have A Tv Video Button On Your Remote If You Do Then Just Click It Till You Find The Appropriate Video Channel.
