Sanyo DS24205 24" TV input problems

If the tv has audio and video inputs why not use these instead of the coax input.That is,as long as you have an external tunerwith audio and video outputs.

The only way to change the input on that TV is to use the remoe. There is no other way. You can get the remote on link below.

U have the original remote.Push the button said input or video to get out back regular tv.Or push the button on the front of the bottom of the tv pannel said menu push that button pick tv. U don't try Website 1-800- Remotes Factory Original.To buy an original or compatible remote.

I can give you these. You should try them until one works hopefully. 0506, 0311, 0612, 0002, 0428, 0802, 0412, 0619. Sometime the universal remotes will not operate everything so be sure to try the power on/off and the volume and try changing channels before assuming the code is wrong. One of these should work...

Ok, cable connected is good. Can you move tv to another connection or run another cable from a working source. Maybe go into setup of tv and check input.

Look for a button on the remote or front of the set that is labeled input (could be tv/video) this switches between video inputs and the tuner.

I would try to replace the AV switch IC which directs i/o signals to the tv decoding stage.

If you have the original remote, hit video, source, or input button, if it dont have them, then try to change the tv to channel 00 (zero or zerozero), if not then the channels might have to scroll to it, from channel 02 down to make it loop, if it goes to the next highest channel, then you need a remote. It may be set in the menu options to have the video source not saved to your list of saved channels. when you scan the channels, the tv might not look for the A/V source (audio / video), maybe just the RF source. The 3 DVD RCA wires are 1 video and 2 stereo, one stereo for left and one stereo for right. The TV has only 2 , 1 for video and 1 for mono 1 channel sound. This wouldnt have anything to do with why you cant use the DVD player. but try that with the original remote (or a universal remote that is set to your tv set that has either video, input, source or something similar. It is what tells the tv to change from the cable source (RF) and the AV source (the Red White and Yellow plugs, in your TV's case, 2 plugs, one yellow and the other either red or white or something). Dont really know how to explain it much more but hope it helps.

if you have a sky remote or know someone who does you could try programming it by using one of these codes, try them all one at a time
