Trying to get channels above 42 to 99

Hotel sets use a special remote with specific instructions--you need to get that remote and the instructions---hotel knows that..........

Hello jporter...

welcome here in fixya..

That problem is one of the common problems of plasma TV (have sounds but no picture)..As a expert of flat panel for more than 5 years I already encounter that kind of problem many times..

Actually that problem is caused of either X,Y or Z sustain board or even both 3 boards are faulty..Because some models when the one of those boards have short circuit or bad there are possibility that other sustain board are affected..But most the problem like yours is "Y-SUSTAIN" board..

I can't find your model online please double check it it either Phillips 42PFP5332D/37 or 42PFP5532D/05

And for specific and easy way to find replacement please try to look at the part # of that board (it is usually printed on the sticker attach to the board itself..

Hope it helps and please don't forget to rate my answer..

Have a nice day!!!

regards,
Chester.

there should be an auto program on the menu, but you can also download the complete manual for this model here http://www.retrevo.com/support/Zenith-B27A11Z-TVs-manual/id/277dj086/t/2/

Press menu button then press 7935, if like me you bought a display model it will be set to hotel mode, this hides all the menus, once accessed switch hotel mode off, job done x

u go for different music modes of ur home theatre... say 5 channel stereo or something other. u can get the sound. better luck.. if not clearly mail me about the problem...

in the menu usually a button on tv switch from antenna to cable or catv

if you remote won't work there are 7 or 8 different code choices go through them till it does work

most unversals need tv on and will turn off when code is right

also in menu is audio choices stereo on /off and so on play in there till you get it

for phillips tvs that come out of a hotel try this code with RCA universal remote. the big remote not a small remote. 319753 followed immediately by the mute button. this will pull up the tv setup menu.

problem was with the FIOS Box not the phillips TV. The box appeared to be working but would not respond to channel changes and is being replaced.

It maybe a model that is used in hotels and has a volume lock on it.You need to contact the manufacturer, or read the instructions on how to override it.

If cable is hooked through cable box with a coaxial cable, then turn tv to ch 3 or ch 4 as appropriate.

If cable is hooked through any other type of cord (red/green/blue or red/white/yellow) use the AV+ or Source button to change your source to Av1, AV2, HDMI, or however you have the cable box hooked to TV (I am assuming your TV is a Philips).
