    I never set the &@%! v-chip junk. I finally fixed my cable connection so I could watch tv. EVERY channel goes bluescreen on me and says v-chip activated. Isn't the food network pg? Any channel I put it on goes blue except input.

Forgot v-chip code

Sharp has several locking and V-chip commands but one of these three possibilities should work.

If the "Secret Number" is forgotten, simultaneously press the STOP, RESET, and VOL up buttons on the front panel of the set.
This disables both the "Channel Lock" and the "Time Limiter" features.

CTV's Lock Mode---Blue screen and display says,Parental Control Rating Unknown
Try This: Hold Channel up and down on the set while pluging in AC cord.
Or Try This: On the set, press volume up and channel down at the same time.

CTV's V-Chip Release
When screen asks you to "input secret number" press and hold channel up and down on the TV set until message disappears. Press menu 2 times to exit.
Hope this helps!
