Top 20 Apex Digital AT2014DV 20 in. TV/DVD Combo Questions & Answers

Hello
Your Apex TV has been locked. If you remember the lock code you have entered, enter the same to unlock it. Otherwise check the following.
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.

i have as inon tv how do i do to unlock

This TV will need to be repaired, What you hearing is a relay in the power supply unit not able to send power to make a circuit, okay this could be due to a bad powersupply,or bad flyback.

I would suggest bringing it into the shop $95 bucks to fix it for good. You be glad you did.

i have a shinon tv and it is locked what do i have to do please

Yes, provided that you have a satellite service provider. I hope this solution is helpful. Please take a moment to rate this solution.

There is a distinct difference between coax and phono (rca) cabling. Coax, sometimes called RF, is a cable that carries audio and video at the same time, what we call a "modulated" signal. RF connections look as if they are threaded on the chassis of your TV or VCR etc. A lone "Phono" cable moves either audio or video, but not both at the same time, unlike coax.
If you are attempting to patch RF, your cable must be coax at both ends.  Hope that helps.

This is going to be a tough one.  Odds of finding replacements that will exactly into this chassis, and somehow be screwed down securely will be difficult. Here's a thought.
I tried to look up the owners manual with no success. If the set has a audio output, most likely a left and right out on the back on phono connectors, you can head over the  local Best Buy and snag a couple of powered speakers to fit the bill. I've seen them as small as your fist, and usually one has the amplifier built into it with the second being the satellite. Get the cable with dual phonos at one end and the correct connector at the powered speaker end (most likely a 3.5mm TRS like you use on a Ipod) and you're good to go. Figure to spend about $30 total. Good luck.

i need to unlock my tv

if any of these are connected to a cable box you dont have nothing to worry...if not yes you need the converter

Hi,

Appreciate the direct "Ask Me".

I understand and no offense taken. Apparently the same source with the same search engine.

Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information.

Good luck and kind regards. Thank you for using FixYa.

LOOK FOR MAIN FILTER CAPACITOR 270MICROFARAD 300V OR 400V. IT IS THE CAUSE OF THE BURNT OF FUSE. SEE TO IT THAT IS BULGING AT THE TOP OR ANY PART OF IT. CHANGE IT AND PUT THE ORIGINAL FUSE AND THE POWER IS BACK AGAIN.CHECK ALSO FOR HORIZONTAL OUTPUT TRANSISTOR NEAR THE FLYBACK IF IT SHORT.GOD BLESS YOU

Use the original remote with the tv on hit the F button at the top and the mute button at the same time. Worked for me. Hope this helps.

I would try 'waking up' the remote-Take the batteries out,press each button once then put the batteries back in.See if that works.

Maybe the laser is unable to focus on the smaller pits and lands of a DVD disk but can see the relatively large pits and lands from a CD just fine. This may be solved by using a CD/DVD cleaner disk. It's a disk with small brushes on it that attempt to brush dust from the laser's lense. They don't always work but that's what I'd try.

Without a remote controller, you may have limited options to change modes on your Apex digital TV. However, you may be able to change the mode by using the buttons on the TV itself. Here are some general steps you can try:

1. Turn on your TV and make sure your DVD player is connected to it.
2. Look for the "Menu" button on the TV and press it.
3. Navigate through the menu options using the arrow buttons on the TV until you find "Input" or "Source."
4. Press the "Enter" button to select the input/source option.
5. Use the arrow buttons to select the input/source that corresponds to your DVD player.
6. Press the "Enter" button to confirm the selection.
7. Press the "Menu" button to exit the menu.

Note that the specific steps may vary depending on the model of your Apex TV. You may also consult the user manual for your TV for more information on changing modes without a remote controller.
