Hello
Your TVs vertical output section has the trouble. Electrolytic capacitors in that section, 8 numbers the most, should be replaced with new capacitors. Iit won't cost more. OK.

It is impossible to say without seeing the extent of the damage. The question is not whether it is repairable but whether it is economically repairable. If it's an older glass screen TV I would not bother repairing it unless the damage is very minor. If you still have a picture then all the high voltage stuff is working, BUT I DON'T THINK YOU SHOULD USE IT UNTIL IT HAS BEEN INSPECTED water and high voltages don't mix well.

Yes, have had a Brand as same as yours the problem could possibly as follows:

• Its volume down button could have pressed due to alignment of chassis.
• Defective speaker
• eeprom problem, needs to be reprogram

Above suggestions are do by an authorized servicing personnels. Thanks for using Fixya.

Most RCA sets use a four digit code to control the v-chip. The code reset is different depending on the model. Try each number until you find the one that works for you. 1.Hold down the MENU button on the remote and VOLUME DOWN button on the TV it's self at the same time for at least 4 seconds. The set won't say so, but the lock will be unlocked 2.Hold down the 0 (zero) button on the remote and the VOLUME DOWN button on the TV itself at the same time for at least 4 seconds. The set won't say so, but the lock will be unlocked 3.Hold down the MENU button on the front of the TV and the TV button on the remote at the same time for at least 4 seconds. 4- Hold down GO BACK button on the remote and MENU button on the front of the TV at the same time for at least 4 seconds.

1. Hold down EJECT button on the front of the TV set and the MENU button on the remote at the same time for at least 4 seconds. Depending on the model, one of the methods should unlock the V-chip. Now, if desired, you can change the settings on the V-chip by going to the MENU and going to PARENTAL CONTROLS, or on some sets, going to MENU and then going to TV SETUP, then to V-CHIP SET.
