Picked up 2005 sylvania model 6620lf4 the colors in the picture where red and green. I held power button and menu button down together now its stuck on blue/gray solid screen. Can you factory reset?

There are two methods to reset TVs. The first is simple to do; a Hard Reset. The other is somewhat skilled; is a Factory Reset (System Reset). To make it a hard reset, just unplug the TV from AC mains wall socket, and re-plug it back after 15 minutes or so. If you do this by overnight is better. This procedure will make it a hard reset. If you want to make it a system reset [Factory Reset]; you have to enter its service mode option, and select the factory reset option. If you wish to get some details; check the site linked here. Pull up older posts. http://electronicshelponline.blogspot.com/ Service mode entry, adjust and exit procedure to many popular brand TVs are given. Never forget to exit the service mode, after all adjustments have been done.

I have a sylvania vcr/cd combo that wont rewind or fast forward when not in play mode

this is all i could find on the internet so not sure if this will help you out. I've seen similar myself in the past and usually it will be a spring off, a brake lever in wrong postion. May be due to slight mechanism phase misalignment. You may have dislodged a tension spring on one of the brakes (brake pads press against reel tables), or the reel brakes are stuck on during FF/REW mode. Trouble is you'll probably need a dummy service cassette to see this clearly. If you had removed the rear loading drive assembly to fit the small belt, on reassembly the phase position of the mechanism is likely to be out, affecting the brake levers. There are alignment holes in the main chassis, the main cam and gears on the bottom of chassis and they must be perfectly aligned, along with the mode switch. You'd need the service manual for phase alignment details as it requires the reference diagrams. It can be fiddly enough with a full alignment manual, without one it's going to be very difficult to realign it, is that's the case.

How to go to the input on a sylvania tv without the remorte control

Without a remote control, you can't. If you wish to buy its original remote control, contact the authorized service centre, or authorized dealer to your device brand.They can either give you a genuine remote control to your device, or can direct you, from where can you purchase a suitable one. To select a proper universal remote control, you should know about the number of digits to its set-up codes.There are 3 digit, 4 digit, 5 digit, 2 digit and even single digit codes, to some brand devices.After confirming this, check the sites linked here.Both the sites have set-up code list and set-up procedure to many popular brand remote controls. Check which brand remote control has set-up code/s to your device brand, and buy that one according to availability. Brand name of the remote control isn't a matter, but it should have set-up codes in its code list, to the device brand you have. Please note: Every new universal remote control will have set-up code list, and set-up procedure along with its pack. Never accept a remote control, that hasn't both of this. For more details about the set-up codes, visit the sites. http://electro-medical.blogspot.com/ http://electrohelponline.blogspot.com/ http://remotesearch.blogspot.com/ Universal remote controls are available at most of the electronic spare part selling shops. Visit some on-line sites too, which deals with electronic spare parts. If you wish to get further advice over phone; visit https://www.6ya.com/

Where does the driver disc for my Sylvania Turntable Model STT008USB go?

The turntable itself does not require a driver. The PC should identify it when you connect it to the USB port. The startup disc contains the Audacity program that you need to use to convert the analog audio from the turntable to digital audio format. Install the Setup disc in your PC's disc drive and if AUTORUN doesn't automatically start the install, explore the disc and click on the SETUP.EXE file to install Audacity. If you are trying to do this using a netbook or other device that does not have an optical disc drive installed, you will either have to get and external optical drive or, on another device that HAS an optical disc, copy the files from the startup disc to a USB stick and run them from there.
