No code i bought a used vs-50607 tv ,a lot of the channels come up with v chip locked tv-14 .i do not have orignal remote or a user guide with this product, asks for a 4 didget# to unlock ,i do not have that #

Hi. It's really necessary to have the original remote. All so called replacment do not have the "menu" button. In Philips TV's access code is not rquired. In your case, some channels are "whiped" and cannot be recalled. If you can go into setup-menu, things can be rearranged. There are numerous web-shops where you can buy an orignal remote. I recently bought an original remote for my DVD player. This however was at an on-line shop in Belgium. Just surch for Pilips on line shops in your country. Good luck.

Hi,
Using your remote control....

Select Menu
Select User Settings
Select Locking

You now have a choice;

If you want to completely lock your receiver...

Select Receiver Lock (note; default code is 0000)

If you want to lock certain channels...

Select Channel Locking
Select Yes
Select channels you want to lock on 'Channels to lock' screen
There are different levels you can use.

If you want to change your lock code...

Select User Setting
Select Change receiver Code.

Hello

Apex TVs use a four digit code to control the v-chip. The override code for many models is 6688. Other sets may not have one, or may have a default code of 1225 instead of an override code.

1. To use the override code:
2. Hit the MENU key to get to the menus.
3. Go down to the SYSTEM menu and hit the right arrow on the remote control.
4. Once in the SYSTEM menu, go to PARENTAL GUIDE. It will ask for your code.
5. Enter the override code listed above. From here, you can turn on and off different rating restrictions, as well as set a new code.

No matter what the V-chip code is set to, the override code will still work. If you have a blank screen with a red key on the bottom left, simply press the (function or F) button and the mute button at the same time. This will unlock the screen and allow you to view the channel as desired.
OK.

hello try this Bypassing the V-Chip Lock
After you set the lock, you need your
passcode to view a V-Chip locked program,
view the locked TV, cancel the lock, or enter
the V-Chip lock menus.
If you forget your passcode, you can
view the locked TV without entering your
passcode. This is done by pressing the
number 9 and QV buttons on the remote
TV control at the same time, when your
password is requested. This process
temporarily unlocks the TV.
When entering the V-Chip Lock menu, this
process deletes your old passcode and
prompts you to enter a new passcode. good luck

Go through the menu and find autoprogram should pick it up.

I'm afraid you will need the original remote control hand unit folks. Apex TVs use a four digit code to control the v-chip. The override code for many models is 6688. Other sets may not have one, or may have a default code of 1225 instead of an override code.

1. To use the override code:
2. Hit the MENU key to get to the menus.
3. Go down to the SYSTEM menu and hit the right arrow on the remote control.
4. Once in the SYSTEM menu, go to PARENTAL GUIDE. It will ask for your code.
5. Enter the override code listed above. From here, you can turn on and off different rating restrictions, as well as set a new code.

No matter what the V-chip code is set to, the override code will still work. If you have a blank screen with a red key on the bottom left, simply press the (function or F) button and the mute button at the same time. This will unlock the screen and allow you to view the channel as desired

Need a make and model to determine what codes needed to unlock.

1. Turn on your TV. If he TV request your secret code press QV and 9 at the same time.
2. Press menu to view the main menu.
3. Use up or down key to select "Chip Parent Lock" and press enter.
4. The on screen display wil ask for your current passcode. Press QV and 9 at the same time.
5. The on-screen display will now ask you to enter a new code.
6. To cancel the passcode permanenly, press menu or home.
7. To change to a new passcode, use the number buttons to enter a new code, then press enter.
8. You must use the remote control included with thisTV. You cannot use a universal remote.
