Turn on the TV. While holding down "UP arrow" button on the remote control, press the POWER button on the TV. [The TV will turns itself OFF and then back ON again. Release the "Up Arrow button.

This operation will clear all your customized settings including Paremtial Lock settings.
in otherwords, this is the process to unlock the TV if it is locked.
Retune it by autotune fuction. All the lost stations will emerge again.
Ok.

Hi,
If standby red light is blinking on tv front that means tv got some internal problem, since tv is new so would be under warranty, call Best Buy or number written on tv documents and ask warranty cover.
Any attempt to fix tv by yourself will void warranty.
Let me know if you have additional question.
Thanks.

Hi,
Press Info/ Display button on TV remote, on-screen display (gray band info) will disappear.
Thanks.

You don't. The set knows if the cable provider is sending HD or analog. Not every station is HD.

unplug the power cord plug from the tv then unplug the antenna cable look inside the antenna metal peace make sure the wires are not touching to each other first connect back the antenna plug then the power cord if its an interior antenna your problem is the antenna

Hi,

OK I would like for you to open unit and in the middle of the panel is the T-CONN board, it has the LVDS cable going to it and the main board. First try to wiggle the LVDS cable to make sure no loose connections while set is on. Next disconnect LVDS from T-CONN board make sure to not let the cable touch any metal turn set on and see if screen lights up and with a clear screen. If not OK some models won't let you check this way. But if it does the panel is not faulty it is OK, LVDS or main board or T-CONN issue. So let's hope it's the CABLE, LVDS is loose. If you isolate inside the unit you may find your problem much quicker.

Let me know,if needed further assistance.

Hope i helped you.

Thanks for using ' Fixya ' and have a nice day!!
