REMOTE PROBLEM I JUST RECENTLY HOOKED UP A ELECTROHOME VIRTUAL FLAT SCREEN TV, AND NOW MY REMOTE IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. MY UP BUTTON TURNS THE TV OFF, THE VOLUME DOWN BUTTON SWITCHES THE TV TO S-VIDEO SCREEN AND SOME OF THE OTHER BUTTONS DO FUNKY STUFF. IT IS ALMOST LIKE THE TWO REMOTES HAVE CROSSED OVER BECAUSE ON THE REMOTE FOR THE TV WHICH IS THE ORIGINAL ELECTROHOME REMOTE SOME OF ITS BUTTONS CAN WORK ON THE PANSAT RECEIVER AS WELL. EVERYTHING IS SET EXACLY THE SAME WAY MY OTHER TV(RCA) WAS SET UP. IT JUST DOES NOT MAKE ANY SENSE. CAN YOU PLEASE HELP WITH THE SET UP. THANKS SHAWN.

It sounds that the main digital board to your TV has the fault. To check and locate the fault to this board is a very skilled work. Contact any service technician.

Your answer may be in this document: http://electrohome.com/discontinued/manual/27E404_Eng.pdf

Try this. Turn tv on. Press "ent" key for at least 2 seconds until the led light on remote lights. Press the "TV" button. Press "chan+" then power button, then repeat 'chan+ then power button until tv turns off. Press enter. This should work.

For digistar brand tv you may want to try these two codes.
Direct Code Entry

1. Press and hold the SETUP button until the red indicator stays on, then release the SETUP button.
2. Press and release the desired Mode button (TV, VCR, etc.). The red indicator blinks, then stays lit.
3. Enter the 4 digit code from the code tables. Note: after a valid code entry, the red indicator turns off. For an invalid code, the red indicator flashes.
4. With your device on, press CHANNEL UP. If the device responds, no further programming is required. Note: If some buttons do not operate your device, try one of the other codes for your brand.

ELECTROHOME ............... 0245 0254

We are having the same problem with a new lazyboy universal remote and a 27e510 electrohome tv.

take it out for about 15 mins if that dossent work go to the controls and set and if that dosent work its busted

These are generic RCA Universal Remote codes to control an Electrohome TV: 006, 011, 014, 027, 038, 061, 068.

Your specific model will have other additional codes. If these codes don't work, you could try re-posting with more information.

Many RCA universal remotes have a CODE SEARCH button. If yours does, here are the steps to search for the proper Electrohome TV control codes:

1. Manually turn ON your TV.
2. Press and hold CODE SEARCH.
3. Press and release the TV button.
   
4. Release CODE SEARCH.
5. Press OFF/ON repeatedly until the TV turns off (you may have to press up to 100 times at a rate of once per second).
6. Once the TV turns off, press and release ENTER.

Hope that helps.

Me thinks IF you tried the 'code search' function and none worked, I sincerely doubt if any other 'codes' will marry your Philips Remote to your electrohome TV.

This is because your "SEARCH" effort already went through ALL of the possible codes THAT Philips Remote knows and can deliver. It is also possible that a different MODEL of Philips Remote MAY stumble on codes that DO work!

IF you have a 'original' remote, SOME NEWER remotes can LEARN the proper codes from the original remote! BUT you NEED that original remote to send the desired IR data pulses to the smart student remote.

And GOD ~ those TV's are SO OLD, did they even HAVE remotes??

Program the remote with the code/codes provided by the remotes manufacturer until you find the one that gives you the functions that you desire, or you could look for the OEM remote from the manufacturer of the TV or on an auction site.
A lot of times the universals won't perform all the functions that the original one does.
Good Luck.

The Product: Electrohome 27E510

The Problem:
3rd Party Universal Remote when trying to "scan" for correct codes inadvertently activates a diagnostics setting on the TV set.

The Symptoms:
The word "FACTORY" appears on the upper left quadrant of the screen in RED letters & suddenly all controls are "Locked Out." Television will not respond to button presses on original remote or on it's built-in-buttons on the side panel. All settings/options are "Locked Out" & the TV can only be shut OFF by physically unplugging it. Additionally, when the TV is plugged back in, it is still in the "ON" state & remains in "Locked Out" state.

The Solution: (thanks to a couple of hard-working Support Personnel at NESA)
Plug TV back into power source. Wait until it powers up and the word "FACTORY" is visible on-screen.
Press 6-4-8-3 on the TV's ORIGINAL IR remote device.
You are now in the diagnostic settings Sub-Menu, & the word "ADJUST" will be on the screen.
Press "MENU" on your TV's ORIGINAL IR remote device.
The TV is now back to it's former fully-functioning state.
