I had the same problem & have just tried holding the rectangle button with the + sign in it down for 4-5 seconds and it worked - I am sending this message in here as I can't find where to say thankyou - I was going crazy and such a simple thing to do fixed it - thank you again

Our dog stood on the remote and now we have a lock symbol on the top left hand corner of our Centrex TV. Our remote is not the original and we've tried holding down every button for 4 seconds, turned the power off. Nothing has worked.

there is a button on the remote that has a rectangle shape on it with a + inside the rectangle. Hold it down for 4 seconds or more.

hold down the button with the + sumbol on it for at least 5 seconds, then turn off and back on the TV, it should play fine.

Had the same problem with the same TV. Hold down the DISPLAY button for 5 seconds or more while the TV is on.
