Lost functionality w/ Universal Remote

I lost the original remote and bought a universal as a replacement. I can turn off the TV, change channels, etc., but for some reason the remote won't allow me to pull up the menu or switch from cable input to video input. I can't even find a way of switching the input from the front of the TV or in the menu. Any ideas?

Then the only way to reach your tv is through coaxial antenna port. So you can buy an rf modulator ( very cheap) and connect your red yellow and white cables (rca cables from a dvd, game console etc) to the modulator then connect the modulator to your antenna with a coax cable. This worked for me.

Sorry to have to tell you bud, there is no other way except with the original remote. Go to http://www.remotes.com and enter your model and you will see what you have to spend if you want to use your tv fully! Its about %* bucks + shipping. Good luck

Now, it depends upoon the Universal Remote u purchased. If your remote has the neccesary buttons - AV/TV switching,Front - Rear Input Switching, Menu, etc, it should work! Since there are multiple codes for every brand, keep feeding the various codes one by one, and checking if the neccesary functions operate. If, finally, you are unsuccesful, then, folow techman's advice. Best of Luck.

Lost remote for sanyo ht30746 tv
You can buy an exact remote from a company called Remote control warehouse for 39.95----Google the model number and you will find them.

It is very common that "universal" remotes will do many functions but not ALL that the original remote did--considering this it may be a good idea to get an original remote---part number on this site is: 6450750977for the remote for this model Sanyo.

I hope this helps you and if you have any questions let me know.

I HAVE A DURABRAND TV MODEL #BH2004D. THE REMOTE GOT LOST AND THE TV IS STUCK ON THE INPUT CHANNEL. I'VE ALREADY TRIED SEVERAL UNIVERSAL REMOTES, BUT STILL CAN'T MAKE IT WORK. WHAT OTHER OPTION DO I HAVE...
You need the original remote to change internal and setup options. Universal remotes can only do the basic functions.

Do a Google search to see if someone somewhere has an orignal remote for sale.

You need the original remote controller to be able to switch input modes.Universal ones usually don't work. If you don't have the original remote and can't find it ever or if it is too expensive you can buy an rf modulator ( very cheap) and connect your dvd player, game console etc) to the modulator then connect the modulator to your antenna with a coax cable. This worked for me. It placed the connection to channel 4 and other cable channels are still working,

You can buy the RF Modulator from: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180299245670

Universal remote control are normally programmed for basic functions, ie. chennel up down, volume up down, numbers, etc. This is even written in the manual that they do not guarantee that all functionality can be used. Here are your options: 1. Try all the codes that match your TV, there is a slim chance that the other code have the functionality that you need. 2. Buy the original model remote control. 3. If you know of someone that have the same TV, buy a universal remote control with 'learning' function and copy the signal from the original remote control. I have the same problems before. Now I use my Casio wrist remote control to copy the special functions such as A/V so that even if the original remote control is lost, I can still use these functionality

My new Sanyo TV that I have in the bedroom and connected via a Dish satellite receiver in the living room has a tinny sound. This happens more often late at night and early morning hours. Is it my n My new TV which is the bedroom has a tinny, raspy, rattling sound during late night and early morning hours. I have done sound adjustments via the menu on the remote. I put back my older Sharp 25" TV and it does not have that problem. Originally I had a small antennae attached via a splitter and did not have the sound problem but more snow. Dish satellite had me more that antennae to the back of my receiver in the living room. I like the larger screen and I keep the TV on all night long as I watch when I wake and cannot sleep. The sound though is really grating on my nerves. Any suggestions? Is it the TV or the satellite signal?
