Gu26dvd remote doesn`t work batteries ok

Hello! I'd be happy to help you.
To remove the key lock from your Grundig TV model GU26DVD without a remote control, you can try the following steps:

1. Turn on the TV using the power button on the TV itself.
2. Press and hold the MENU button on the TV for several seconds until the menu appears.
3. Use the volume up/down buttons to navigate to the "Lock" or "Child Lock" option and press the MENU button to select it.
4. Enter the four-digit password using the number buttons on the TV. If you don't know the password, you may be able to find it in the TV manual or by contacting the manufacturer.
5. Navigate to the "Off" option and press the MENU button to select it.
6. Press the MENU button to exit the menu.

If the above steps don't work or you don't have the manual to find the password, you may need to contact the manufacturer or a professional technician for assistance.

may have to purchase service manual, but if you do attempt this Understand that if you're not sure what you are attempting you can cause the unit to not work at all.

I would try new batteries first. If that doesn't help then replace the remote with a universal unit that you can program to work with your TV.

Check its battery contacts for any dust or rust. Clean the contacts first and then check.

Does the spare remote work? Have you tried to reprogram it? These remotes are very cheaply made and prone to key pad failure. To program the remote click this LINK, if that doesn't work buy anew one on eBay for cheap.

Hello
Just look on its battery contacts first, for any rust or dirt accumulated on it. Clean it with a edge of a razor baled and insert batteries and check. If this dose not help you, you have to open it, and clean the contacts. There may be fungus accumulation. Clean it with medical quality turpentine or rectified spirit. Never use strong solvents like petrol or others, as thay will damage the rubber parts. OK.

Read this procedure to possibly fix the remote:

They also sell replacement remotes.
Or look on eBay, usually much cheaper if available.

make sure the remote batteries are in the correct + and - way. It could also be that the remote is broken. If nothing comes on when you press the power button and the tv doesn't respond, then the remote is broken and you should buy another one.

You can try this simple idea; to re-code the remote to your unit, press and hold 1 and ENTER/OK buttons together for 5 - 10 seconds, then release. This should restore the remote command to match the unit, and thus the remote should work. Failing that, replace the batteries in the remote with new ones, and repeat the above suggested procedure.

If the remote is triggering 'SET 1' on the unit's display, this simply means the remote code is different to the unit, and hence the remote requires a reset to restore control to it whenever the batteries are replaced. Easy enough to fix, doesn't take very long, and should not cost anything except some new batteries if required.

Have since found the answer on the SKY website. Thanks.
