- Thanks you for your answer, but none of the passwords worked. The message that appears when selecting for example channel 8, is 'channel be locked'.

- I purchased the Tv about 3 years ago at Sam's Club. It was used with Comcast cable until last year I added a digital box from comcast. About 3 mos ago it was moved to another room and attached to the cable from the wall. I rescanned the channels, now there are some locked channels. I never changed the password (on purpose) it may have been a mistake, and don't have a reason to lock any channels.
Any ideas?

- Yes you are correct, I am the only owner, no children, I didn't set the V-chip, so do you know how or where I can contact a service center? Also, the locked channels were not locked before and they do exist in the package because all the other TV's in the house can get those channels. Thanks again.
so you are the only owner of the tv and you have no children and you did not set the v chip password to something else, well then it is still set to the default password, if someone else set it by accident you would have to contact a service center to find out if there is a default reset for the v chip password. The locked channels were not locked before? or they did not exist in your package before?
Contact any TV repair service , they should be able to tell you the default password over the phone, if that does not work then the Television has been damaged in the main board, and most likely a replacement will be needed. This is the best I can do for you I do not have access to this models password default setting. let me know how it works out please.
