I mistakenly turned on the FPA power settings and now all power and function buttons (volume, channel, etc) will not work. I do not have remote that came with TV, but I do have a RCA Digital Theater. I can turn the TV on with this remote and change the channels, but I can not change the volume or edit any settings. Is there a way to manually override FPA lock settings and get back to default w/o the original remote?
If you forget your password you can reset it. Make sure the TV is off. Simultaneously press and hold VOL< on the TV?s front panel and CLEAR on the remote for approximately 5 seconds. Enter a new password next time you access the PARENTAL CONTROL menu. Front Panel Lock 1. From the PARENTAL CONTROL menu, press the up or down arrow to highlight Lock Fr. Panel. 2. Press the right or left arrow to turn on (box has check mark) or off (box doesn?t have check mark) front panel lock. Of course if you don't have a remote that can bring up the menu I don't know how this can be done.
Well i have CRT RCA TV AND I DONT HAVE REMOT AND MY MISTAKE I TURN FRONT PANNAL LOCK ON AND TURN OFF TV SO HOW I RESET THAT TO TURN MY TV ON
You schould buya unniversal remote and turn on the tv then click menu than prefrences than turn fpa lock on off
1. Hold down the MENU button on the remote and VOLUME DOWN button on the TV it's self at the same time for at least 4 seconds. The set won't say so, but the lock will be unlocked
2. Hold down the 0 (zero) button on the remote and the VOLUME DOWN button on the TV itself at the same time for at least 4 seconds. The set won't say so, but the lock will be unlocked
3. Hold down the MENU button on the front of the TV and the TV button on the remote at the same time for at least 4 seconds. 4- Hold down GO BACK button on the remote and MENU button on the front of the TV at the same time for at least 4 seconds.

The power button is broken on my magnavox tv. I have just exchanged my digital remote as one of the buttons was not working. I am now not able to program that remote as I have to have the tv turned on and cannot do that manually.
