My Sony Trinitron TV does not respond to remote control commands

My Sony Trinitron TV does not respond to commands from the remote control. I am certain it is not the remote as other machines do respond. Each time I press a command button on the TV (any button eg sound, channel, the video input control changes from Video Input 1 to 2 to 3 to 4 etc. Before the remote receiver failed, the TV would sometimes show menu screens, blinking functions, etc.

Otherwise the TV is perfect. Presently using the cable box to change channels and have the TV sound piped through the stereo system.

    My Sony Trinitron just stopped responding to any command on my remote control from Time Warner. That remote works on all other tv's and I have tried to program numerous remotes for this TV but none of them work. FRUSTRATING!

    My Sony KV-27HS420 TV does not respond to remote control buttons. None of the buttons on the front of the TV work (except the power button). This means I can't change the channels, change volume, or access the menu. Before this, the menu used to appear at random times when the TV was on, without anyone pressing the menu button on the remote or on the TV.

My Sony Bravia has the same problem - commands seem to get 'buffered' and are then executed together.Once I notice it is not responding, I sit back and wait for it to catch up, which canbe frustrating.Anyone know the solution?

My television no longer accepts commands from the remote control. I have verified that the remote control works properly. Please advise.

Since remote control is verified so next thing involved in remote operation is remote sensor located on front of tv that receives remote signals.
Remote sensor seems defective in your tv and need to be replaced to solve remote issue.
Call local tv repairman if you have no experience of soldering parts in circuit board.
Thanks.

My remote worked fine, but suddenly won't work at all. TV is older Sony Wega 24" Trinitron (KV-24FS100). The satellite remote will change the channels, cause it's using the box, but it won't control...

Could be the IR receiver in the TV.
Make sure nothing is in front of the TV that would block the IR from receiving commands from the remote, I've seen customers put VHS tapes on the front of their TV that caused the remote to not to work.

Good luck

Menu Screen pops up, try to exit and goes to video 1

This could be a stuck button on the front control panel or a bad solder connection on one of the switches on the front control panel.

Tv remote codes

I have a Zenith universal remote that i want to program to a sony 27 inch Trinitron, what are the codes?

Setting tv to channel 3

When the led blinks twice it is telling you that the remote accepts the code, but that does not mean the tv accepts the code. If the tv does not power on after programming the new code then you must try the next code in the sequence, until you find one that powers on or off the tv.
