Question about Hitachi 50DX01B 50" Rear Projection Television
I accidentally sat on the tv remote and buttons were pressed. Unfortunately I have no clue which ones but now my tv has no color. The PIP still works in color so I know it is just the settings but my husband can't figure out how to fix it. Please help before my husband decides to leave me for a color tv. lol Thanks, Jane
Check the menu for a "facotory reset" option. That should reset everything. Mind though, that ypu'?ll probably have to reconfigure any other settings as well.

That was odd. Did you see the change actually happen as you sat on it, or did you sit on it and later notice that things had changed? If so, might any kids in the house have done something to the cables? Some cables (especially scart) have switches on them that may alter their behaviour.
You say that PiP works fine. I suppose you have two tuners or something like that? If you switch the input cables, do the PiP become black/white and the main picture color? If so, it is probably a setting on the input port. See if there is a PAL/NTSC setting. I have had problems where the device (tuner) was set to NTSC while the TV only supported PAL. There are some differences in the signal that causes it to be black/white.
The problem might also be on the sending device (tuner, DVD, etc). If your remote has the ability to control multiple devices, you might have changed the settings there. To confirm/eliminate this, try connectinf a different device to the port. If the problem goes away, your device is at fault, if not it'southe TV.

I found a reset check box which I put a check mark in but it didn't reset anything.
