Sony Bravia 55'inch led volume controls stopped working. Remote or tv button don't adjust volume

Take remote and place on top of AM radio set to 600 on dial. Turn up volume and make sure you have a good battery in remote. Depress button - should hear some beeps on radio - every button you push will produce distinctive beeps. Any button that does not is a bogus area in remote. All buttons should work for remote to be totally good.

Often some heavily used buttons go bad but there are work arounds for that.

This TV has the active 3D transmitter built in to it in some regions. It is included for the model sold in the U.K.

You need to register the Active 3D glasses before they will work with the TV. To register the glasses, turn on the TV and bring the glasses within .5m of the TV. Then press and hold the power button on the glasses for 2+ seconds (until the power button blinks alternating green and yellow). When the registration is successful, a message will show on the bottom of the TV and the green light will stay on for 3 seconds. This will need to be repeated if you use the Active 3D glasses with another TV and then use them again with this TV.

Now you need to activate the 3D feature on the TV. Press the 3D button on the remote or press the control bar on the Touchpad remote and slide the touch pad to the 3D icon and select it. Then choose your 3D option. You may also need to adjust the 3D display settings from the Home button. Press Home and select Settings. Then choose Display and then 3D.

The manual for the KDL-55W829B is available here: http://www.sony.co.uk/support/en/product/KDL-55W829B . The Help Guide, http://download.sony-europe.com/pub/manuals/tvhc/14HE468112-EN-Print.pdf , has the information on using the 3D feature starting on page 56.

I hope this helps.

You would need to do a factory reset
From the Sony Forums:
factory reset to your Television.

1. Turn on the TV.
2. Wait approximately 40 seconds for the TV to completely start up.
3. On the TV remote control, press and hold the UP ARROW button.
4. While holding the UP ARROW button, with your other hand reach around the side of the TV and press and release the POWER button on the TV set.( not the power button on the remote) it should be the top button along the side panel.

found the problem after reading a post on this site. Last thing I used was DVD player so disconnected DVD Sony player, followed the factory reset instructions and now the volume works normally! It was the DVD player. Thank you so much for the info and lead. The problem is DVD not TV,

U have the tv original remote wright?Yes?U must have the tv original remote to do any adjustments to the tv for a screen sizes pictures.Look at the tv original remote carefully for any buttons on the tv remote like Aspect Ratio,Zooming - +,Picture,Picture size,Display,LCD Mode,VIEW MODE.Pushes one of these buttons a couples times to choses the correct pictures sizes for ur tv screen or what u wanted to be.

The code for your remote is "0000" Press "TV" and then "Set" while holding "TV" wait for the LED to blink twice then release both buttons enter code "0000" the LED will blink twice again to confirm. Press "power" to test. That's the only Sony code for your remote. Hope this helps

check to be sure your remote is sending IR signal, with
a smart phone camera hold remote IR eye in front of camera and click any buttons on remote, you should see
a light coming from IR eye. If no light emitting, remote needs to be replaced.

I had this same issue, and solved it by putting the TV in "Theater Mode', which can be acheived by hitting the "Theater" button on the remote.

There's a setting in the menu. I think it's called "smart audio". It's supposed to adjust the volume automatically for commercials. But I don't think it works that well. Give that a try.
