I have a 37lg5000 TV and cannot access setup mode from the menu the other menus work ok. No video or sound. Any suggestions

SOURCE: TV screen on video 2 and remote died

The only way your going to change the video mode is with the original remote. If you need another remote go to http://remotes.com or call 1800 remotes Theres a button on the upper left hand side of the remote called video mode. A universal most of the time will not work this function. You could ask around to your friends and buddies or relitives if anyone has a working Sanyo remote or go to a local retailer that sells Sanyo and see if he would let you borrow one for a little while so you can switch out of the video mode. Good Luck

SOURCE: sound got off even sound menus in TV

It is really a memory problem try to access its service mode open the cover of its remote control so you can find an extra carbon switch inside which is not accessible if the remote control's cover is on.Another way is you can use an eeprom copier copy a known good aiwa ctv with the same model or parameters

SOURCE: Panasonic TV - no picture, but sound is ok

it is due to vertical section failure.

• before you start any work reduce brightness to avoid crt burn.
• please check some loose contact or loose connector.
• check supply to vertical section
• check parts in vertical output section
• check vertical ic.
• hope this will help.
• good luck.

SOURCE: Unable to view setup menu on TV screen

I had this same experience and after hours of attepts to fix it (including the suggestions on this site) I found that the company that installed and set up my system literally disabled the "set up" on the remote so that it could not be changed. To fix this (and/or confirm that this may be your problem) reference page 39, "all reset functions" to reset your remote back to factory settings. As soon as I did this and hit "set-up" -- the set up menu popped up and worked appropriately. Hope this works for you!

The only thing that would cause this is a lock!

If you ever forget your password, key in ‘7’, ‘7’, ‘7’, ‘7’
on the remote control.

If unlocking does not free up the unit menu then the unit has most likely had a software upgrade at some point to disable these functions permanently. This is normal hotel based systems in order to prevent them being used if they are stolen. In this case you will have to contact LG directly with Model no and Serial No details to get them to assist you.
