Sony KDL32W4000 TV - grey band keeps appearing

A grey band stays at the top of the screen with the "analogue" icon on the left and the channel number on the right. I can see the picture through the grey band but how do I get rid of the band?

I found a manual for your TV, I don't have the time to read it all but thought you might find your answer in there. http://pdf.crse.com/manuals/3298243431.pdf
I hope this helps you. Good luck and sorry I can't help you more.

SOURCE: I was watching my TV last night and the screen

Generally in these cases that means it's a faulty cable or loose connection.

On LCD's if the screen dies or anything internally for that matter, the screen would stay black. Grey means a signal is coming through, but it's being able to receive it.
Solution:

Check your cables for any loose connections or try alternate cables going to your tv set.

Hope that helps. If you need anymore help let me know :)

How to change from analog to digital

If you have an old analogue TV and wish to keep it, buy a digital set top box (which is just a digital tuner with no screen), then connect the antenna and TV to that. These STBs are quite cheap, and a good name brand will give you an excellent picture, with one qualification.

This is that the old analogue TVs have a screen proportion of 4:3, whereas the digital broadcasts are 16:9. So by keeping an old screen you will lose a bit of the picture at each side, or see a black band at top and bottom.

If you don't like that, you will need to buy a flat-screen (digital) TV and toss out the old one. There is a huge range of sizes and prices, so if you look for a special from a recognised retailer who will stand by the warranty, you would be OK.

Screen wont turn back upright

Swipe down from the top. A band of icons appears. Look for the rectangle (top left I think) This is the Screen Lock Icon. Tap it to turn screen Lock OFF. (Or on the EFun it may be a Wheel icon for screen lock.)

Hi , on my Sony Bravia it states "Calble " with an icon in Black in the top left of the TV screen when watching SKY. Is there anyway of getting rid of this text or icon? Thanks Nick

Hi,
Press Info/ Display button on tv remote once, on-screen display will disappear.
Only Sony tv remote will work for that, no other universal remote will close on-screen display.
Thanks.

Samsung LE32R7 in DTV mode stays on BBC1

Updating the Channel List Automatically You can update the channel list when the broadcaster adds new Services or if you move the TV to a new location.

1. Press the MENU button to display the menu. Press the ▲ or ▼ button to select "Digital Menu", then press the ENTER button.

2. Press the ▲ or ▼ button to select "Channel", then press the ENTER button.

3. Press the ENTER button again, to select "Country".

4. Select the appropriate country by pressing the ▲ or ▼ button. Press the ENTER button to confirm your choice. Even though you have changed the country setting in this menu, the country setting for Analogue TV is not changed. (Refer to page 11 of the user guide)

5. Press the ▲ or ▼ button again, to select "Auto Store". Press the ENTER button. When it has finished, the number of scanned services will be displayed. The existing favourite channel list will not be deleted when the channel list is updated. To stop the scan before it has finished, press the ENTER button with "STOP" selected.

6. Press the EXIT button to exit. If the signal status is poor, the "No Service found! Check the aerial connection" message is displayed. Check the aerial connection and the try the procedure again.

If the channel icon is greyed out and you cannot tune the channels press the TV/DTV button on the remote control unit so that the icon is visible again and not greyed out. This will allow you to tune the TV.

Grey vertical line appears on screen

I had the same problem with my Lnt4071f. I called tech support and they said it was a faulty panel and the entire set had to be replaced. If you have your warrantly still use it, if not you may just be able to replace the panel, but its expensive.
