Question about RCA F36450 36" TV

TV won't respond to ANY remote control

I have two universal remote controls that have, up till now, allowed me to control this tv just fine. Suddenly the other day, neither of these remotes will cause any kind of response from the tv...so we replaced the batteries in both and even tried reprogramming both remotes to no avail. It's as though my tv has gone blind and can't see anything coming from my remotes. Any idea's? Thanks!

You need to change the I/R receiver on the front panel pc board (which can be popped out of the top front of the tv on the plastic key panel without removing the back cover) Location# IR13401 Part# 245282

Eagle 57 had the answer, your TV's are blind. The remote control sensing circuit in the TV is faulty. No remote will control it anymore.

I NEED TO PROGRAM A MAGNAVOX TV WITH A PHILLIPS UNIVERSAL REMOTE CONTROLL

Find codes and methods here.

If those codes dont work try the last three(or four) numbers of your TV's serial number.

On my universal remote is just a matter of holding down the TV button till the light stays on, then punching in the three digit TV code. When the TV turns off it's the right code. But read your manual for your controller.

TV doesn't respond to remote controller suddenly. I changed batteries of the controller and checked it. The controller is not a problem. I tried manual buttons on TV but it didn't work. TV turns on and...

This is caused by radio frequency and what i mean by that isyour tv unit is gettng confused with the crystals that control the connection between the tv and remote.The solution to this is to go to wal mart and buy a new universal remote and in the package should be an instruction manual to set the remote to the tv , First find your tv name in the pamplet,second there will show a code of the remote type it in and enjoy.
